If you can eat it, you can compost it! Remember that almost all organic materials are compostable, not only food waste. See below for examples of what to put in your composting bin:
- Food and food scraps such as fruit, vegetables, meat, bones, shells, dairy, and leftovers
- Plant material such as grass, flowers, leaves, branches, and wood
- Food-soiled paper such as paper towels, napkins, and delivery pizza boxes
Please visit the Marin Sanitary Service website for a complete list of what should be put into your compost bin.
