#CurbsideComposting
Thanks to everyone's composting efforts, we're able to make some big changes!
Take a look at how much waste will be diverted thanks to our partners at @CompostBoston, @pvdschools, & Rhode Island Schools Recycling Club!
Since moving in, @FCDOPeterAbbott and his family have composted ~1500 pounds of food waste from both official 🇬🇧 events and family meals.
Over the past year, the Abbott's composting has been part of @CityOfBoston Compost Pilot Programme.

In celebration of #EarthDay2023, we used soil (from our in-office composting program with @CompostBoston!) and planted lots of seedlings in all recyclable containers, to grow our own herb & flower garden here in at the office!!!🌷🌱🌻 @EarthDay
In the meantime, we also have book groups, conversation circles, programs on art, composting (with @CompostBoston!), and the return of our Massachusetts Historical Parks series!
Our friends at @compostboston offer a curbside pickup service where you can bring a new life to your scraps! They were generous enough to donate 15 buckets of compost, which came just in time for our pollinator garden maintenance. Visit https://t.co/RAjUHKWVg8 to sign up!
If just half of food scraps flowing to landfills and incinerators were diverted to community composters, over 50,000 new jobs could be created from composting alone.
That's on par with the coal mining industry.
