Composting Council

The Composting Council works to increase composting infrastructure, create and drive end markets requiring standards for use and drive state and local policies requiring the use of organic recovery and compost use.

Goal

• Increase compost producers that will aid in delivering 750,000 tons (1,500,000 cubic yards) by 2025.
