Collect
First we collect material from events, businesses, and schools, pictured here is Earth Day Omaha.

Transport
Our little truck that transports thousands of tons of recycling & composting every year.

Process
We’ll turn this “waste” into a resource at our Ashland composting farm.

Steam
Pictured here is steam rising from our piles. Almost as if nature intended it, bad bacteria dies off at the heat range that our piles naturally acclimate to, while good bacteria, which has a higher heat index, sticks around in the compost which results in feeding your plants necessary nutrients.

Finished
While it takes about 2 months to break down into compost, our material will “cure” for up to a year before hitting the market. A good old Nebraska winter does something special for the composting process.

Before/After
Through our process, we turn cups like these back into what they came from: soil.

Now Plant It
After mixing our compost to make different soil blends, we put it back out into the world for farmers, gardeners, and landscapers to redistribute and add nutrients back into Nebraska’s soils.

Zero Discharge Site
We’ve engineered our composting pad to have a slight decline to our catch pond, so run-off leaves our site. We then reuse this water by applying it back onto the piles to keep the 50% moisture needed to kill off weed seeds.

Tree Waste aka Resource
Instead of going to the landfill to take up a massive amount of space, we receive local tree waste and transform it into mulch.


Screener
Here’s our screener. One thing that sets our mulch product apart: we double screen it so you get more consistent, better looking mulch.
