Springtime food scraps bring summer givebacks! Thanks to you, GrowNYC has collected more than 11 million pounds of food scraps that have been transformed into compost to nourish NYC green spaces–including yours! Check out our July giveback schedule and bring your own container to one of GrowNYC’s food scrap drop-off locations to take all the compost you can use. First come first served, while supplies last.
