GCC Projects¡Composting Gowanus!
|
Every month, conservancy volunteers incorporate between 7,000-8,000 lbs of food scraps into new compost windrows. Additionally, we have a weekly turn for the existing windrows that are sitting on the Salt Lot, and upon completion sift through cured compost to produce our beautiful end product - rich compost ready for the garden.
2013 ¡Composting Gowanus! dates are here!
All compost days are 11am - 3pm on the Salt Lot at 2 Second Ave. Email .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) to RSVP. For more information about our composting program, click the "More" link below.
