Here are the resources in NC that will help you understand the different aspects of school sustainability:
- Composting
- General Info
- The NC Department of Environment and Natural Resources has developed a map of Compost Facilities in NC Accepting Food Waste. You may want to see if your school district is nearby. Having a commercial composter nearby creates a more viable opportunity for your district to replace polystyrene (foam) trays with compostable ones that can be diverted to a commercial composting facility along with cafeteria food waste. If there is not one nearby, contact us to see if we can assist you.
- Food Waste Haulers
- NC Compost Council
- NC Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NC DENR)
