Composting 101: What Your Jewish Institution Needs to Know Now 

Hosted by Adamah NY & Big Reuse

Is your synagogue, school, or community center confused about what’s actually happening with composting in NYC these days? You’re not alone—and we’re here to help.

Watch Webinar Recording

Join us for a practical and timely session designed specifically for Jewish institutions navigating NYC’s evolving waste and composting regulations. Whether you’re looking to comply with new rules, reduce your environmental footprint, or live out the Jewish value of bal tashchit (not wasting), this session is for you. 

We’ll cover: 

• What composting options are available now in NYC (and what’s changed) 
• How to compost at any scale—industrial, community-based, or home
•  How your institution can get involved and lead by example 

Featuring: 
Natalia Sucre, Program Manager for Compost Education & Outreach at Big Reuse, a leading voice in NYC’s compost movement. 
Jessie Rothfleisch, Climate Action Coordinator, Adamah NY 

Let’s turn confusion into climate action—and food scraps into soil!
