DSNY Compost Giveback was a huge success!

This past Sunday, along with 4 pallets stacked with of 40 pound bags of compost, the DSNY brought beautiful weather and enthusiasm to Cadman Plaza Park.  After 48 hours of torrential rain, the early Sunday morning sunshine was appreciated by all.  
The DSNY Compost Giveback was a huge success! Special thanks to DSNY’s Andrew Hoyles, Senior Manager of Compost Outreach and Education, Sarah Woodruff from Big Reuse and Menika Harris, DSNY.  We appreciate your engagement with our community, sharing information, signing people up for at home composting, while distributing 40 lb bags of compost.
