This week, 2019 OSI Community Fellow Marvin Hayes of the Baltimore Compost Collective spoke with WYPR’s Sheilah Kast’s On the Record podcast about backyard composting. Marvin explains how to build a personal system, what can and cannot be included in your personal system, as well as the difference between cold (passive) and hot (active) composting.
To find out everything you need to know about backyard composting, listen to the full podcast, which also includes Kristyn Oldendorf of the Baltimore City Department of Public Works talking about a pilot program to collect food waste at drop-off stations, here. Marvin’s segment starts at about the 12:08 mark.
