They were these enthusiastic volunteers at Outside Lands (which promised to be a zero impact event) to help visitors know which bin to throw trash into. By the end of the concert, however, all the bins were overflowing with everything.
Later, she found out that the biodegradable containers were not as biodegradable as she had hoped so she had to clean it up conventionally.
DwellSmart generously donated the compost container and Biobag you see here...it's been great to have a dedicated space for our food scraps. It holds quite a bit of food too! Love it.

A few rinds but mainly just peels and seeds. Most of the rinds are soaking for watermelon rind preserves. The watermelon, of course, was devoured with gusto! What's left will go in the compost.
I am currently in residence at the Andes Sprouts Society artist's program in Stamford, New York. the goal of my residency is to combine science, art, and sustainable farming. I am working with compost worms to learn the movement, interactions, and ecology of this amazing animals. As an artist in residence I am creating paintings in collaboration with the worms. This detail, from a picture that is 11x14 inches, is an example of the work. I hope you enjoy it.

I've been an obsessive composter for over 25 years. I cannot understand
why anyone would let all that good organic stuff go to waste at the
municipal landfill when it can make high-quality soil for their garden.
Every couple of days I make the 20-metre trip to my composters in the
back yard. During the winter I have to keep the path open. After
receiving about 45 cm of snow in the past 24 hours (that's March 17th
and 18th!), today I had to shovel that path. Coming out my kitchen
door, I walk around the posts on the right and down the other path, on
the left. Year-round, I make good compost.
On the first work day at the demonstration garden in Derwood, some master gardeners decided to take on the composting task.
