The city’s Solid Waste Management Department is selling home compost bins through Aug. 30.
Composting is the controlled act of decomposing organic matter to create a nutrient-rich soil amendment.
The city says a single backyard compost bin can divert 650 pounds of organic waste from landfills annually.
Bins are available for purchase online for $54.95. Pickup is scheduled for Sept. 13, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., at the Solid Waste Management Department, 1833 Camden Ave.
The 10th Street Journal previously reported on new drop-off sites for community composting.
