Compost Program
Good news! Mariposa County Solid Waste & Recycling has new compost equipment and they need your food waste!
Thanks to the grant-funded Yosemite Zero Landfill Initiative, Yosemite Conservancy has teamed up with National Park Service, Yosemite Hospitality, Mariposa County, and other park partners to offer a Residential Food Waste Diversion Program!
You must enroll to access the dumpsters. Zero Landfill Initiative will be GIVING AWAY personal stainless steel collection bins to community members who want to collect food waste at home and properly dispose of it!
Contact tgoehring@yosemite.org with any questions.
