Compost Hubs
Food ED is partnering with schools, cities, and community gardens to help implement creative ways to repurpose food scraps. We currently have 3 public compost hubs we manage for public use.
Monrovia Community Garden Compost bin
The Monrovia Community Garden is host to our compost bin that is open 24/7. Located behind the garden in the alley off of Colorado and Magnolia, you are welcome to drop off the appropriate kitchen scraps in this bin at any time. There are browns on site in the trash bins to cover your kitchen scraps. Please use those as it layers the compost and keeps it healthy. See list below to see what is accepted.
