Spread Aloha to our soils

Join the Community Compost Movement on Oahu

The Changing Tides Foundation wants to help make composting a seamless part of the North Shore lifestyle while helping to regenerate Oahu's soils and reduce our community's carbon footprint.

Why participate in a Community Compost Program?

• Food waste is diverted from Oahu's overfilled landfills.

• Composting reduces our carbon footprint by reducing the amount of waste to be incinerated.

• Composting further captures carbon and puts it back into the soil.

• Composted food scraps become a valuable resource for building healthy soils.

• Composting returns nutrients from food scraps back into the soils for local farms to use, completing the cycle and contributing to a healthy, local source of nutritious organic food.

• Community composting encourages food independence & reduces local use of chemical fertilizers.
