The wait is almost over!
Queens curbside #composting is back tomorrow, March 27th
The @nycsanitation Queens curbside #composting program officially returns tomorrow!
If you’ve got food or yard scraps, just use your bin and throw it in — it’s a win!

My office is dedicated to building a more sustainable & equitable NYC. That's why I'm asking @NYCSanitation to reconsider their decision to pause the Queen's composting program this winter. An accessible and reliable composting program is what our communities deserve.
