Welcome to the Compost Circle, a comprehensive school composting program designed to educate and empower students in the art of effective composting. Metate Industrial Supply is proud to offer this innovative program to schools, ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.

What is Composting?

Composting is a natural process that transforms organic materials, such as food scraps, yard waste, and paper, into nutrient-rich compost. It is an environmentally friendly way to reduce waste and provide natural fertilizer for plants.

The Importance of Composting

Composting plays a vital role in reducing waste sent to landfills, minimizing methane production, and conserving natural resources. It helps create healthy soil with improved moisture retention and nutrient levels, leading to healthier plant growth and increased food production.
