Community Composting Program
Introducing a residential composting program without the work!
Let Winton MFG do the composting for you.
You collect the food waste — Winton makes the compost — Local farmers, orchardists and gardeners apply to crops — More nutritious and vibrant food and flowers — You buy great food — Circulating the rich resource .
Turn your spoils into COMPOST!!!
Our community composting program allows participating members to collect food waste from their homes for composting at our facility. With conveniently located drop-off locations, our program will allow you to finally separate out your organic waste from your landfilled trash!
How It Works
Members participate by collecting food waste from their home on a weekly basis in a sealing 5-gal collection bucket. Buckets can then be taken to any set drop-off site in the greater Wenatchee River Valley area and emptied into the Community Compost Cart.
Think subscription service, but for composting.
Why Participate?
By diverting food waste and compostable items to Winton’s composting facility you are helping to reduce the production of methane gas. Normally, food waste sent to the landfill goes into anaerobic decomposition (without air) and produces this harmful greenhouse gas. Winton’s state-of-the-art facility instead uses aerobic composting technology to create high quality compost that delivers important microbes, nutrients, and water retention qualities for the health of your soils and plants.
