Troy Zero Waste supports composting programs at the Farmers Market.  Facebook.com/troycompost

 


Food Scrap Collection for Composting is supported by FoodScraps 360

Every Saturday from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM at the Troy Waterfront Farmers Market

Jonathan will answer your composting questions and tell you how to get food scrap pickup at your home.

Compost collection bins are outside the Troy Atrium entrance on Fourth Street. across from the Post Office.   Everyone is welcome to drop-off your kitchen organic wastes.  

Acceptable items include fruits, vegetables, grains, dairy, meat, and fish.  Food scraps may be in compostable plant-based plastic bags, only if the bags are clearly labeled “Compostable“. 

This “free” service is supported by donations that pay for hauling and processing the food scraps at the compost facility in Bethlehem by FoodScraps360

To help support composting at the Market, donate whatever you can at the Market or donate online.  (Suggested donation of $2 – $5 for each food scrap drop-off.)
