The Methow Valley’s first residential compost program is here! Want to sign up?

Here is how it works:

• Reach out to info@methowrecycles.org to schedule a brief presentation about how our compost program works. It is important for the success of this new program that people participating understand how it works and what can and can’t go into your compost bin.

• Sign up for an Annual Pass or a Winter Pass (see details below).

• Drop off your compost at the recycling center every Thursday between 10-4 OR at the Mazama Store on Saturdays between 8-10am (only one drop-off per week).

• Staff from the B2G Compost facility in Winthrop will pick up your food scraps after 4 on Thursdays and 10 on Saturdays and turn it into compost!
