Check with you local service provider (see other side of brochure for phone numbers) to find out whether yard waste is still being separated in your neighborhood. If you would like to start your own food/yard waste composting project at home, contact Extension Agent Kim Gabel at: (305) 292-4501 or visit the website http://compostinfo.com/
