Compost Conference at Rhode Island College March
  10th 
  Rhode Island has passed
  legislation that requires a limited number of food producers to divert the
  waste from the Central Landfill.  The legislation is for restaurants,
  colleges and universities, and food wholesaler and distributors that produce
  104 tons of organic material annually.  The law could be a boon to the
  sustainability of local small agriculture by providing quality compost. 
  But the requirement  only applies if there is a composting or anaerobic
  digestion facility within 15 miles of the food scrap producer.  Earth
  Care Farm in Charlestown is currently the only commercial-scale composting
  site in Rhode Island that takes food scraps.  
Learn
  how Vermicomposting can be a cost effective solution to the food waste
  problem!  Email or call Nancy at wormladies@verizon.net
