Curbside Composting

Description

Our Curbside Composting service is a grass roots program completely supported by the Maui Community! Join the movement and be a part of making Maui more sustainable by  closing the food loop. By composting with us you are taking responsibility for your trash – Your support is helping us sequester carbon, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, capturing valuable soil nutrients and nurtures the land by creating natural fertility on our farm as well as many other local farms. This service allows our farm and other local farms to grow nutritious food without the use of chemicals additives. The community reaps the benefits of healthy food grown on Maui without damaging our precious soil.

Compost Return!

For your support you will earn 3 Gallons of Living Earth 4x a year for your own gardens, lawns and trees! We hope you choose to grow a small amount of your own food so that you can taste a feel the reward of eating food you grew! Reducing the time from harvest to consumption greatly increases nutritional benefits and also supports our planet greatly! Mahalo for composting!

COMING SOON… We will be setting up a fresh produce delivery service to all curbside composters – When we have fresh produce ready for harvest you can order fresh produce off our website and have it delivered to your front door with your clean bucket! This is how we close the food loop and provide you with Nutritious food that you helped grow!

How it Works

1. After you sign up, we will deliver a clean 5-gallon bucket with a lid.
2. Fill your bucket with your food scraps throughout the week. Our food scrap guidelines »
3. Please leave your bucket out the night before your designated pick up day. We will swap your dirty bucket for a clean one in the morning.
4. In return for giving us your food scraps you will earn finished worm castings and compost for your gardens. You also have the option to donate to a farm.
