Our Purpose

The purpose of our group is to provide the Keene, NH community with curbsite composting.  Right now, our purpose has centered on outreach to the community to increase awareness of the importance of composting to help lower our carbon footprint and inspire sustainable behavior in other areas.We've added initiative as part of the business model becuse we want to continue to advocate for sustainable recycling measures in the city of Keene. This includes a long term goal of bringing city composting to the Transfer Center.
