- Key Takeaways Partnering with community groups offers expanded opportunities for composting efforts Community groups can leverage their partnerships to grow their community programming Hauling partnerships allow community groups to serve a greater number of people without the risk of reaching site capacity
- The NYC Compost Project, created and funded by the NYC Department of Sanitation (DSNY) in 1993, works to rebuild NYC’s soils by providing New Yorkers with the knowledge, skills, and opportunities they need to produce and use compost locally. NYC Compost Project programs are carried out by teams at seven partner organizations: Big Reuse, Brooklyn Botanic Garden, Earth Matter NY, LES Ecology Center, The New York Botanical Garden, Queens Botanical Garden, and Snug Harbor Cultural Center & Botanical Garden.
- The LES Ecology Center (Ecology Center) has pioneered community-based models in urban sustainability since 1987. We provide unique e-waste and composting services, environmental stewardship opportunities, and educational programming to all New Yorkers who want to learn about environmental issues and take responsibility for creating solutions through action. Our program areas include community composting, environmental education, land stewardship, and electronic waste recycling.
- 1987 – The LES Ecology Center (formerly Outstanding Renewal Enterprises) started in 1987 by offering a free drop-off program for recyclables prior to city-wide curbside program. 1990 — Composting Program started in 1990 to transform a vacant lot into an attractive open space. This is now the LESEC Community Garden on 7th Street in the East Village. 1994 – Food Scrap Drop-off Site at Union Square Greenmarket. This is the longest standing Food Scrap Drop-off Site in NYC and we’re proud to still be operating it today! 1998 — Operations moved to the East River Park. First in-vessel compost system in Manhattan. Managed leave composting for 59 acre East River Park. 2005 — LESEC became the Manhattan branch of the NYC Department of Sanitation (DSNY) Compost Project, a city-wide program, providing education and technical assistance for residents 2013 — Hurricane Sandy hit all five areas of the city, but left severe economical damage to the Lower East Side. We restructured our programs, especially our compost program, as a response to Sandy. We were able to expand our network of public drop-off sites throughout lower Manhattan. 2020-today — COVID-19 pandemic. Compost programs were defunded in response. Soon after partially refunded and were able to reopen drop-off site to a limited capacity. To increase access to composting during a time programs restarted slowly (or not at all), we worked with Harlem groups to open 24/7 drop-off sites. We can no longer operate a compost site in ERP due to the East Coastal Resiliency Program and are currently building a new site in Canarsie where we will be temporarily processing food scraps starting spring 2023. Our goal is to increase compost awareness and accessibility in the Southern Brooklyn area (we’ve already opened 11 new public FSDOs) and pass on the boton to a local group.
- The food scrap drop-off network is an online resource managed by DSNY. It provides the locations and open hours for over 200 Food Scrap Drop-off sites in NYC! Food Scrap Drop-off Sites are available to NYC residents to drop off food waste for composting. Each site is organized and managed by one or more groups.
- Model A: DSNY-Funded Partners - Food Scrap Drop-off Sites managed by organizations funded by the NYC Department of Sanitation. These partners include, but are not limited to, the NYC Compost Project and GrowNYC.
- Model B: Community Collected - Food Scrap Drop-off Sites that are managed by community groups who do not have onsite processing capacity but have access to food scrap hauling services through a partnership with a DSNY-funded partner.
- Model C: Hybrid Partnership - Food Scrap Drop-off Sites that are managed by community groups who collect and process organic material on-site but also receive food scrap hauling support from a DSNY-funded partner.
- Model D: Community Processed - Food Scrap Drop-off Sites that are managed by community groups who collect and process organic material onsite and receive support by DSNY-funded partners such as training and tools.
- Model E: Smart Compost Bins - Unmanned containers permanently secured on NYC sidewalks. This program uses technology that limits contamination by allowing access to the bins via smartphone or access key.
- Over half of food scrap drop off sites are created in partnership with community group! Number of FSDO's DSNY Partner Managed FSDO - 82 Community Managed/DSNY Partner Hauled FSDO - 44 Community Managed/Community Processed FSDO - 50 Community Managed Hybrid Sites (Community Processed & DSNY Funded Partner Hauled) - 45 Grand Total - 221
- We offer a variety of support to groups in our FSDO network. Types of support the Ecology Center offers include but are not limited to: Food Scrap Pickup - Hauling services Material Delivery - browns, finished compost Tools & Equipment for Onsite Processing Consultation and training - train Educational resources - literature, bags of compost, stickers, reusable bags for tabling and outreach efforts Volunteer recruitment - building core team members and volunteer base
- Article about FSDO Hell's Kitchen Commons is a historic block association aimed to bring public safety, arts, and environmental programming to the Hell's Kitchen neighborhood of Manhattan. Through support from the LES Ecology Center and NYC Parks, this group was able to restart a robust composting program at Matthews-Palmer Playground, which was suspended in early 2020 due to the pause of DSNY's curbside composting program.
- First month (Nov 2020): 447 pounds Heaviest month (Nov 2022): 6,214 pounds!
- Down to Earth Garden is a 1261 sq ft garden recognizable composting hub in the East Village neighborhood of Manhattan. Since 2009, they've been known for their bokashi and trench composting methods led by the site manager, a trained bokashi master. Access tool to help grow their public FSDO Re-build a three-bin composting system Access to tools for onsite processing Grow their volunteer program through the NYC Master Composter Certificate Course
- Pleasant Village Community Garden, located in the East Harlem neighborhood of Manhattan, has been a community green space for its ethnically-diverse neighbors since the 1980’s. Their compost team is led by Saco Yasuma. She’s an alumni of the NYC Master Composter Certification Course which she took with the Ecology Center in 2018. In 2020, their traditional three-bin system was falling apart and reached out to us for some help. Through support from the LES Ecology Center, this group was able to Open a 24/7 drop-off in response to the pause of curbside composting - this allows them to process food scraps on flexible schedule Fundraise for a new, less labor-intensive composting system Build a new browns bin and receive a resource of browns on an as needed basis Tap into the volunteer network of the Master Composter Certification Course to aid volunteer workdays and other special projects (re-location of compost site and public drop-off)
