The City is closing the loop by providing finished compost made from food scraps and other compostable collected in our organics recycling program.

9:00 a.m. - 1 p.m.

New this year, residents must be participating in the organics program (curbside or drop-off) to pick up compost. Residents need to RSVP by May 3 to secure compost as well as a designated timeslot to pick it up. This may help alleviate lines, and will allow the City to verify participation in the organics program.
The compost giveaway, funded through a Hennepin County grant, is intended to encourage participation in full circle organics recycling that begins and ends with residents.
To secure your bags, RSVP by May 3 at blm.mn/compost. Compost supply is limited.
