Places to drop household compost?

Well, we've got a compost bin that's always hungry -- still haven't gotten any compost out of it, it just keeps compressing. Feel free to feed ours! :-D

I'd be happy to feed yours, too -- please PM me your address as well.

Someone asked a similar question last month but didn't get any especially useful replies.

Thanks for the link to that older thread! I'm hopeful we won't have to go with a paid route since this is a short-term problem, but nice to see there are multiple options. And the Growing Center seems like a good possibility as well.

I have a small bag of compost that is looking for a bin. Do you still have space in yours? We have a CSA in Waltham and only pick up every other week and I forgot to bring ours today. Let me know.

Thanks!

Most Whole Foods have a compostable bin, as well. Next to their various recycling bins (batteries, cell phones, bags, etc.)

Which Whole Foodses are you thinking of? I've only seen compost bins at Prospect Street.

I know there is one in Medford, and I thought there was one at Fresh Pond.

I think that there's a difference between a "compostables" bin and a "compost" bin. I'm not sure if they want you walking into the eating area of the WholeFoods and dumping your decomposing compost into their buckets...
