REDUCE FOOD WASTE:
COMPOST WITH RUST BELT RIDERS

We have partnered with Rust Belt Riders to bring you a great composting program! Join and receive 25% off a subscription to Rust Belt Riders and a Year-round 10% Off Home Pick-up Composting Service.

By signing up for the Community Supported Composting program through Rust Belt Riders, participants can drop off household food scraps at the Nature Center. Rust Belt Riders then picks up all food waste, sourcing out to a network of partners who then process the material into a nutrient-dense soil. By transitioning the old composting program at the Nature Center to this partnership, we are investing in the solutions and infrastructure needed to protect our natural resources and combat food waste in our region.

For more information and to subscribe to Rust Belt Riders Community Supported Composting program, visit www.rustbeltriders.com/join or email info@rustbeltriders.com.

Existing members may contact Rosalind Soltow at 216-321-5935 ext 246 or soltow@shakerlakes.org to receive your code to get started on your waste reduction!
