A brief description of the pre-consumer food waste composting program:
Pre-consumer wastes are materials that were discarded before they were ready for consumer use, such as carrot tops or potato skins. These compostable wastes are taken to the ISU compost facility at the Research Farms located southwest of Ames. After being processed, the compost is used for landscaping new construction projects, existing buildings, and planting beds.
