Brooklyn: Here’s the dirt on free compost. (And how to get a $70 compost bin for $20.)

The NYC Department of Sanitation – in conjunction with Compost Project staff at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden – is giving away free, high-quality compost! If you’re a City resident, just bring a shovel and enough sturdy bags (such as sand bags) or containers to take away an unlimited amount of free compost. We’re also selling compost bins at the subsidized price of $20, so you can make your own compost. The bins are made of recycled plastic. Free compost and subsidized bins are for NYC residents and NYC community groups only (proof of residency will be requested; sorry, no commercial landscapers or other businesses allowed). If you want us to fill your pickup truck with compost, make sure to bring a tarp to cover the compost for transport. (We will only fill pickup trucks registered to an address within New York City.) The compost comes from the NYC Department of Sanitation’s leaf and Christmas tree composting operations. Now you can enjoy the benefits of this recycling program.

Here’s Where To Go: Dates: Saturday and Sunday, October 22 & 23 Saturday and Sunday, October 29 & 30 Times: 8am - 2pm Need to arrive at least 30 minutes prior to closing to receive compost. Location: Spring Creek Composting Facility in Brooklyn (easternmost end of Flatlands, just past Fountain Avenue) Directions: From the Belt Parkway: Take Exit 15 (Erskine Street) • at 1st traffic light on Erskine Street, turn RIGHT onto Gateway Drive • go to the end of the road, turn LEFT onto Fountain Avenue • go to 2nd traffic light, turn RIGHT onto Flatlands Avenue • go to middle of the block and turn RIGHT into the Spring Creek Composting Facility. From the Jackie Robinson (Interborough) Parkway: Take the Jackie Robinson (South/West) to Exit 1 (bear left) • follow signs for Pennsylvania Avenue • take Pennsylvania Avenue approximately 2 miles to Flatlands Avenue • turn LEFT onto Flatlands Avenue • go approximately 1.2 miles to the middle of the block past Fountain Ave • turn RIGHT into the Spring Creek Composting Facility. For More • Visit the New York City Compost Project website at www.nyccompost.org Information: • Call 311 or the Compost Project at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden at (718) 623-7290

Don’t Litter. City of New York, Michael R. Bloomberg, Mayor Department of Sanitation, John J. Doherty, Commissioner
