NewsA half watermelon rind carved to look like a monster with wide mouth and jagged teeth stares from the top of the compost in our rolling compost bin. Text: July 4 party? Bring your compost to CUCC!

Bring them all … watermelon rinds, fried chicken bones, lemon seeds, even paper plates IF they are marked compostable.

(Paper products must be marked “compostable”; “recyclable” is not good enough.)

List of compostable items is here.

If you have questions about composting at CUCC, contact Gary Smith, chair of Justice in a Changing Climate (via Breeze or office.cucc@gmail.com).
