Compost

Composting with Grow NYC and the Gowanus Canal Conservancy

At work on Monday, I just had to brag -- I had spent Sunday making 3 tons of compost!  It hadn’t been too stinky, and I had a nice tan to boot!   I found this service opportunity by just striking up a conversation with a GrowNYC Compost Coordinator, Peter Tzannes, at the BurnedGreen Volunteer Fair at McCarren Park Greenmarket on Saturday.  In between him encouraging passersby to compost their apple cores and paper bags, I learned GrowNYC is always looking for volunteer composters to make the work go faster.
