Celebrate Earth Month by Composting

Earth Care Opportunity, April

Interested in composting? You can still pick up your 3 free compost bags in the church lobby. Fill each bag with your kitchen food scraps and deposit it in the compost bins located in the church basement. Learn more about how beneficial composting is for our earth and get started.

Did you know…

  • 28 % of waste deposited in landfills can be composted. Food waste in landfills leads to increased emissions of methane, a potent greenhouse gas.
  • If everyone in the United States composted, it would be equivalent to removing 7.8 million cars from the road.
  • Soil with compost added to it can hold 2.5 times more water than traditional soil, reducing the amount of water that needs to be applied.
