LA COMPOST

Organization Description

OUR MISSION: As a community based non-profit, we support a healthy transition where food is never wasted, but returned to the soil for the next cycle of life. Cooperatively with a diverse network of partners within LA County, we co-create spaces for local compost access and engagement, restorative practices, and community empowerment.
