Your Support Makes The
Following Work Possible
-
Diversion of Food Waste
We create natural, community-based solutions to climate change by eliminating organic waste going to landfills
In 2022, we diverted close to 4 million pounds of organic materials from landfills. This is equivalent to 3, 750 metric tons of carbon dioxide and the emissions of 805 passenger vehicles taken off the road for a year.
-
Building of Healthy Soils
LA Compost processes organic materials to heal our soil through our community hubs, regional compost hubs, and farmers’ market drop-offs.
Every year, 22 tons of nutrient-rich compost is created for community gardens and urban farms in Los Angeles County.
-
Community Empowerment
LA Compost engages in community-led, bottom-up strategies to link community members with the soil and each other through educational programming.
We have led 110 compost workshops to empower communities to heal a broken food system.
We have created a diverse human network of 1,665 unique individuals working together to transform their local ecosystem.
