Become part of a movement that’s turning organics into opportunity

Connect with a network of like-minded individuals, businesses, municipalities, and organizations committed to turning organics management into a source of jobs and revenues under a co-operative model that meets the community's needs, prioritizes social and environmental well-being and fosters resource stewardship.

Membership opens the door to shared resources, education, and innovative solutions for managing organics, benefiting both your local economy and the environment.

Community composting initiatives already exist all across the province in various stages, including in Kippens, Georgestown Community Composting in St. John’s, and in Corner Brook by the Western Environment Centre. 

These initiatives provide us with key lessons. Now, we need to unite to share them, develop our collective power, and grow the composting movement in Newfoundland and Labrador!
