About the Tour (typically 30-45 minutes)

Our compost experts will give a walk-through of operations so that you see how food scraps and yard waste are processed into nutrient-rich compost that benefits our City parks and reduces our carbon footprint. The tour takes place inside and outside to show how the campus is designed, what technology is used, process logistics, and what products are produced.  Each tour will be followed by a Q&A session to answer your questions.
