We know it takes some effort to separate your food and plants into the green bin, but the results are worth it!
Your food scraps and yard trimmings are made into compost which is used to enhance soil health in gardens, parks and farms. But it’s only successful if that compost is free of contaminants like plastic.
Why else is this important? Separating your food scraps and yard waste from landfill waste is now the law in California. Make sure your green bin is free of contaminants, and you’ll be in compliance.
