Compost Give-Back Day

The Sleepy Hollow Environmental Advisory Committee (SHEAC), Climate Smart Communities and Tarrytown Environmental Advisory Council (TEAC) will conduct their first “Compost Giveback Day” on June 25 from 3-5pm at John Paulding School Parking Lot located at 154 N. Broadway, Tarrytown.

Residents of our villages have been sending their food waste to be composted instead of going to the trash incinerator. Now it’s time to bring home the nutrient-dense compost that is produced and use it in our home gardens!

Residents (including those not yet part of the Tarrytown & Sleepy Hollow Food Scrap Recycling programs) are encouraged to bring up to two large bins and buckets and take home finished compost brought in from the composting facility.

If you are able to come help us, VOLUNTEER HERE.

This celebration of environmental activism will include a compost learning station for kids and families, and information about each Villages’ programs.  A share table for seeds and plants will allow residents who don’t have a garden at home to take advantage of the free compost and  go home with something to grow.

This event is sponsored by Sleepy Hollow Environmental Advisory Committee (SHEAC), Climate Smart Communities & Tarrytown Environmental Advisory Council (TEAC).
