Goats!

The Compost Chick does compost the all-natural way. By utilizing Chickens, Goats, and Vermicomposting, she is able to speed up the composting process. Chickens' natural tendency to scratch, scavenge, and, well, poop, helps break down and enrich the organic material. The goat bedding is used as one of the primary components of the compost, and our friendly worms carry a hefty workload too! When the waste passes through the worms, they leave behind the very special substance of vermicompost. The combination of these three things creates a compost like no other! 

Why Collect Food Waste?

It's our job to take care of the land we live on. Although it may not seem like collecting your scraps makes a difference, choosing to compost boasts a whole host of benefits for both you and planet earth. Some of these include reducing waste in landfills, bettering soil health, sequestering carbon, and even feeding the animals in the pictures above!

It's no wonder composting is such a no-brainer!
