Compost Giveback Day, Rx Disposal and a Big Tag Sale This Saturday in Scarsdale

Saturday April 26 will be a busy day in Scarsdale. Here are three special events you may want to attend:

Compost
Compost Giveback Day will be held at the Scarsdale Recycling Center. As part of its Food Scrap Recycling program, Scarsdale is giving away FREE high-quality compost to Scarsdale residents on Saturday, April 26 at the Recycling Center, 110 Secor Road, from 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM – it’s first come, first served, so bring a pail, bucket, or other receptacle, and take home some compost! Prior events have been well attended, so plan to be there early.

The food scrap compost can be used in one’s vegetable garden, flower beds, or to enrich turf in place of chemical fertilizers.

The high-quality food scrap compost being given away in celebration of Earth Week is provided pursuant to the successful Village of Scarsdale residential Food Scrap Recycling program. Over 3.5 million pounds of food scraps have been recycled since the beginning of the program in January 2017.

For any questions about the April 26th compost giveaway, food scrap recycling or to sign up for the food scrap recycling program, please email composting@scarsdale.gov.
