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.
