IMAGES FROM 2010!

- MoS collectors located people with waste in hand.

- We offered worm compost bin disposal for their apple core or any raw food intercepted.

Seeing the worms was a hit with the kids!
City information on Composting

- We accrued more collective participants.

- People talked compost with Master Collectors. We all engaged in multiple conversations and trouble shooting.

- Leaf compost was played in and kids learned how to sift it into fine soil.

Helper. Sifting leaf mulch.

- People sowed bean seeds and hopefully they are now growing up in windows around NYC.

- Fruit smoothies were enjoyed. Worms ate the waste. It is now beautiful soil growing more food in our gardens.

As a culture, we inherently can make the richest most beautiful soil with our food waste
