Opportunity Details
Compost Hub Support: CultivaLA Farm
Join passionate community composters, learn to turn food scraps into rich compost, and connect with the local food system.
Why: At our Compost Hubs, food scraps collected from the community are transformed into nutrient-rich compost, and we need your help to make it happen! As a Compost Hub Support Volunteer, you’ll gain hands-on experience working alongside our knowledgeable Compost Managers. Get ready to leave feeling accomplished, a little sweaty, and brimming with new compost knowledge.
Who: LA Compost works to restore lost connections to the soil and one another.
What to Expect: Roll up your sleeves and dive into a variety of engaging activities—whether it’s managing a three-bin system, tending to a compost pile, sifting finished compost, or exploring a mix of everything. There’s something for everyone, from beginners to seasoned pros! Plus, our Compost Hubs are situated in LA County’s most cherished green spaces: community gardens, urban farms, and beautiful parks.
