Since signing up for our food waste removal service, Cream Bean Berry ( @creambeanberry ) has diverted 836 pounds of food waste from the local landfill. That figure offsets some 829 miles driven by fossil fuel-burning vehicles. Or, planting 5.5 seedlings. Or, 37 less gallons of gas pumped.
Climate action is more than a numbers game, with the lives of millions of people and creatures at stake. Nonetheless, anyway you crunch this data, collective small actions make a HUGE difference for our precious planet.
Stop by Cream Bean Berry and show your appreciation with the purchase of a scoop or two. Remember: leave no trace of food waste -- zero leftovers (and zero judgment) 🍨

Carbon Farming in La Plata County
Your trash is the earth's treasure
Your food scraps can save the planet! If everyone in the La Plata County region recycled their food scraps into compost, we could grow higher quality food and sequester carbon. As a community, we can transform our “waste” into living soil building local self-reliance and supporting people, the planet, and prosperity for everyone.
This is the biggest crisis humanity has ever faced. This is not something you can like on Facebook.”
– Greta Thunberg
Benefits to YOU!
Support Local
By choosing to support local businesses like Table to Farm Compost, your buying dollars stay in the our community and you are helping to grow the La Plata County economy.
Recycle Nutrients
Growing food removes valuable nutrients from the soil. Composting returns those nutrients and living microorganisms to the soil, thus completing the cycle. This living biology is what sequesters carbon and promotes plant health.
Save The Planet
Food that decomposes in a landfill releases methane gas, a greenhouse gas 86 times more potent than carbon dioxide over a 20 year lifespan. Plus, saving food from ever making it to the landfill reduces the need for more and larger landfills.
