Backyard Composting

Turn Your Green Waste into Compost
Backyard composting is a way to manage your waste at home and eliminating the amount of waste going to the landfill. For information on how you can turn your green waste into compost, read this Composting Guide provided by City of LA Sanitation's Solid Resources division. You can also learn about backyard composting, worm composting, compost bins, grasscycling, and other gardening techniques at one of its workshop events held on the 4th Saturday of the month from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the Griffith Park Composting Education Facility located at 5400 Griffith Park Drive, Los Angeles. Compost bin sales are held on the 2nd Friday (9 a.m. to 1 p.m) and 4th Saturday (10 a.m. to 12 p.m.) of the month at the Griffith Park Composting Education Facility.
