Join us in canvassing Kingsbridge Heights to get more households signed up for Curbside Composting !

About this event

Big Reuse, in partnership with the Department of Sanitation, is conducting outreach to increase awareness of and participation in Curbside Composting and we need your help!

Our Neighborhood Outreach events give you the opportunity to talk one-on-one with other New Yorkers about the importance of composting and how they can participate. Once you register, we'll send you more details, information on the program and helpful tips.

Please note that we are asking volunteers to show proof of vaccination, and to wear a mask while conducting community outreach.

Are you a Master Composter?

This volunteer opportunity, upon completion, can be counted towards the 30 volunteer hours required for the Master Composter Certificate; in addition to the completion of 7 workshops and 2 field trips. Workshops, field trips and volunteer hours can be completed at any participating host-site citywide.

The Master Composter Certificate Course is an education and outreach program offered by the NYC Department of Sanitation (DSNY) and designed to build a citywide network of composters, advocates and educators to support community composting, drop-off composting, curbside composting, and backyard composting in NYC. The certificate course is offered year-round throughout all five boroughs.
