What do you do when the municipality doesn’t provide the city-wide composting service you think they should? Well, it would seem that some people would start their own private composting initiative. For $6 a week, they’ll pick up your organic matter and compost it for you. At the end of the year you can pick up some high-grade compost from them for use in the garden.

I’m perfectly happy using my vermicompost in my apartment (for the record, it’s very little work, doesn’t smell, and produces stuff my plants love). It could be interesting for others though, and is also perhaps indicative of the fact that people on the island are interested in the service.
