Our Mission
We are a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit on a mission to increase composting and recycling capacity, access, and participation in the Philadelphia area via land use, education, and resources for communities in need.
Our Vision
We work to:
-
Assist in community efforts to transform vacant lots into green spaces for community gardens, community composting, and other community use
-
Receive applications and offer funding for composting services to interested individuals in the city of Philadelphia living below the poverty line
-
Educate people about the importance of and proper way to compost, and "the 4 R's" (refuse, reduce, reuse, recycle)
-
Explore and engage in collection of certain recyclable materials and ensure that they are recycled
-
By year end 2025: increase composting and recycling capacity in the Philadelphia area by assisting in the creation of a new, permitted composting site, which can also serve as a place to collect and sort certain recyclable materials
