2022年春季堆肥回馈
The bg视讯 Compost Program is typically focused on collecting your food scraps, 但是今年春天, we’re also giving away free compost made from the food scraps we’ve collected in the last year! This is our annual act of reciprocity: we're closing the loop and giving thanks to the thousands of New Yorkers who have saved their food scraps from landfills by bringing them to our Food Scrap Drop-off sites. Small, 2-pound bags of ready-to-use compost will be available on a first-come, first-served basis while supplies last, 如下所述.
纽约制造的堆肥
The compost for this Giveback is provided by two 纽约市堆肥项目 host sites: 地球物质NY and 皇后植物园. If you’ve dropped off food scraps with bg视讯, then the bag of compost you’ll receive may contain nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium from your very own peels and pits. That’s what we mean when we say “closed loop.”
堆肥回馈计划
Quantities are limited and based on average weekly participation at each drop-off site, so consider coming early to make sure you get a bag.

如何使用堆肥
You don’t need to have a backyard or garden to have a use for compost. Indoor plants benefit from an annual application of compost, and we all have access to street trees that can use some love. We recommend mixing your compost into soil at a ratio of at least 3 parts soil to 1 part compost for best results.
- For outdoor plants: Rake, sprinkle, or mix the compost into the soil of garden or tree beds.
- For indoor plants: Gently mix an inch of compost into the top layer of potting soil, or blend with potting soil when repotting.
Compost is not shelf-stable, and will not store well. Please use your compost within a week or two of receiving it.
Our small Compost Giveback bags are also compostable. Please remove the tin tie and sticker before bringing the empty bag back to a bg视讯 Food Scrap Drop-off site for composting.
Looking for a larger quantity of compost?
The bg视讯 Compost Program has the opportunity to give out finished compost bags made at the Staten Island Compost Site by the Department of Sanitation. We have 150 bags of approximately 30 lbs. each that we can deliver to interested participants at our designated food scrap drop-off sites for pick-up. 请填写bg视讯的 表格要求完成堆肥 bg视讯会和你联系的. 请注意,由于供应有限, we cannot guarantee that you will be able to receive finished compost. The Department of Sanitation is also listing options for receiving or picking up larger quantities of finished compost on their website here.
到底什么是堆肥?
During Compost Giveback events, there’s often some confusion about what we’re giving away and why. 以下是一些需要了解的定义:
-
Food Scraps (noun) – the uneaten foods or parts of food. 把这些东西叫做废料, 而不是浪费, highlights their value and potential for beneficial use, including human and animal consumption of rescued edible foods, composting, 厌氧消化.
-
Composting (verb) ——有氧过程, biological decomposition that transforms organic materials like food scraps and fallen leaves into compost.
-
Compost (noun) – a soil amendment that resembles dark, 易碎的表层土, 有令人愉快的泥土气味吗, and has no resemblance to the original organic materials from which it is made. Compost refers to the finished product of the composting process, and is not to be confused with food scraps, which are just one ingredient in the composting process.
-
Soil (noun) – the upper layer of earth in which plants grow. Healthy soil consists of 45% minerals, 25% water, 25% air, and 5% organic matter. Soil is not to be confused with compost, which is a soil amendment that adds organic matter and beneficial microbes to soil.
When you drop off your food scraps with bg视讯, we bring them to composting facilities, where they’re mixed with carbon-rich materials like leaves and wood chips, 然后转化成堆肥. The finished compost can be used to improve soil quality for houseplants, gardens, 和行道树一样.
