Let's Go Compost is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit empowering communities with the education and resources needed to reduce waste.
Who We Are
Let’s Go Compost is a national nonprofit focused on practical education, common-sense waste reduction, and local responsibility. We work with public schools, libraries, and community institutions to make composting simple, affordable, and accessible.
Our approach is hands-on and grounded in science. Students and educators learn how natural systems work, how food waste breaks down, and how small daily actions strengthen communities. Programs are designed to fit real classrooms and real schedules, with clear expectations and long-term ownership at the local level.
We believe stewardship starts early, education should be useful, and solutions should be scalable and fiscally responsible.
