Composting Time in East Hampton Town

Thu, 05/15/2025 - 11:26

ReWild Long Island is beginning its summer composting program this weekend and will collect compost and provide information to those interested on Saturday at the Springs and Sag Harbor Farmers Markets and the Montauk Community Garden. The organization will have tables at Ashawagh Hall from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., at the Sag Harbor market on Bay Street from 10 a.m. to noon, and also from 10 a.m. to noon in Montauk.

The group will maintain those same hours throughout the season, with help from adult and teen volunteers, who will explain what kind of scraps can and cannot be composted.

Rewild will host a compost and EcoTable at Amber Waves Farm starting on Wednesday from 8 to 11 a.m. and continuing on Wednesdays through the summer. Those interested have been invited to take their table scraps to transform them into soil food. ReWild representatives will be available to answer questions about composting, recycling, native plants, pollinators, and more.
