Free compost is available for Sonoma County residents every year. Collaborating with the municipalities, community volunteers, and partner organizations, Zero Waste Sonoma organizes compost giveaway events throughout the County. The compost is certified USDA organic, OMRI listed, CDFA listed, and is produced from local facilities that process material collected from residential green carts. The compost does not contain biosolids or manure. Compost is usually delivered in bulk, and residents are asked to bring their own containers and shovels. Residents are welcome to attend any of the events around the County, but we encourage residents to go to the ones closest to them to reduce vehicular greenhouse gas emissions.
In 2024, residents in Sonoma County are welcome to pick up compost from permanent hubs, which will be stocked year-round. Opening hours vary depending on location. More locations to come.
