About Circle Compost
Established in 2016, we are a woman-owned company born from a desire to prevent food scraps, leaves, and other organic discards from being landfilled. Keeping organic materials out of landfills stops them from creating methane gas, which is extremely harmful to our environment. Making organic materials into compost is a circular, sustainable process creating a soil amendment to help farmers and gardeners grow healthy plants. Our goal is to change people’s perception of organic materials that have traditionally been considered trash, and provide people with a simple, localized alternative to throwing these organic materials away. We put people and safety first as we work to heal our planet via composting.
All are encouraged to apply regardless of prior experience. Diverse backgrounds welcome including any age, race, sexual orientation, gender identification, religion.
