What to Compost?

We can accept all kinds of produce as well as coffee waste, bread, table scraps, pasta, egg shells, and more.

We make it simple to view the environmental benefits your donations are making with our Diversion Dashboard tool. You’ll find stats such as pounds of waste diverted from landfills and pounds of CO2 saved by composting that waste. You can also get data on your larger community’s achievements, as well.

What Happens to Your Food Waste?

We think it’s really cool how spoiled food and leftovers can become a valuable commodity when given enough time and a place to relax. Where is that, you ask?

Your Moonshot collections are transformed into compost at commercial composting facilities, after which it finds multiple practical applications.
