I raised my speckled, squished banana out of my backpack with a mission to find the nearest compost bin. As a Trillium employee exited from the kitchen, I asked if she knew where the compost bin was. She told me that they had terminated the use of compost bins due to the immense amount of improper composting. But here’s the main takeaway: throw away only food scraps in the compost, and this includes “fruit scraps, vegetable scraps, non-greasy food scraps (rice, pasta, bread, etc. We can’t keep avoiding the problem while it stares right back at us as we thoughtlessly chuck the half-eaten sandwich into the compost bin.
