Does the institution have a pre-consumer food waste composting program?:
A brief description of the pre-consumer food waste composting program:
Pomona's dining halls compost 100% of compostable non-meat and non-dairy pre-consumer waste, which is transported to the campus Organic Farm for composting. Students can compost pre-consumer waste in the residence halls by checking out a compost bucket (or using their own) from the Sustainability Integration Office, then disposing of those compostable wastes at the Organic Farm or at the six compost bins placed in residence hall areas around campus.
