Compost Nashville

Phillipe Chadwick spotlights the good work of Compost Nashville. It’s a win for the community, for the environment, and for local gardens and growers. Their motto is Grow Food, Not Landfills.

Gardener Extras

Bioplastics are made from natural materials such as corn starch and look indistinguishable from traditional petrochemical plastics.
Compost Nashville accepts paper-based products, soiled paper towels/napkins, waxed paper, compostable plastics, cardboard, meat and dairy products, pasta, breads, cereals, baked goods, leftovers from cooked meals, candy, and waxed coated paper products.
Food waste left to rot in a landfill produces methane gas, not compost. This methane gas actually plays a key role in the depletion of the ozone layer.
