Compost Fundraiser, 3.19.2021
Update (March 18, 2021): We are SOLD OUT. We are truly grateful for the support of Manoa Elementary ohana. Stay tuned for the next compost fundraiser.
The Manoa Elementary School Zero Waste Initiative project has produced finished compost which is available as a fundraiser. The proceeds will benefit Manoa Elementary School’s Sustainability program.
Prior to the pandemic, Manoa Elementary School collected and processed 23,058 pounds of food and milk waste in 2019-2020 – that’s 11.5 tons! One hundred percent was composted in hot compost piles behind the campus next to the community garden.
With the help of the Windward Zero Waste School Hui led by Mindy Jaffe, we harvested the compost piles from last school year which yielded approximately 70 cubic feet of dark, nutrient-rich compost!
