Ever wonder what happens to your food scraps after they leave your organics cart? Curious how compost is actually made?

Join Bloomington’s Solid Waste Team for a behind-the-scenes tour of the Dakota Prairie Composting Facility and learn from the experts who turn food scraps into nutrient-rich compost.  The tour includes a 30–40-minute presentation, followed by a 20-minute tour of the yard.
