Compost Collective KC

Compost Collective KC provides Kansas City’s only option for sustainable curbside food waste disposal in the region, composting over two million pounds of food waste annually. In addition to residential and commercial compost collection, our small team of managers and operators tackle community education, facilitate zero-waste events, and engage volunteers. Compost Collective KC seeks to create a sustainable loop between food consumers and agricultural producers, where nutrient-dense, food-based compost fuels a truly circular economy. To that end, Compost Collective KC already partners with its sister business, Urbavore Urban Farm, providing 100% of the farm’s fertility, and delivering produce to customers on food waste collection routes.
