A brief description of the pre-consumer food waste composting program:
All pre-consumer waste that is produced in the Dining Services departments is collected by our Resource Recovery department where it goes through a vermiculture process. After the compost is fully processed, it is used to create a "compost tea." Compost tea is a compost-infused water which is rich in nutrients and can be used as a fertilizer. Our compost tea is used on our flower beds on campus.
