Reuse and recycling are key components in WLSSD’s work to reduce waste sent to the landfill in our region. You can help “close the loop” with these products and services:

Garden Green® can be purchased at several locations; learn more about the benefits of using compost, helpful tips and instructions on proper use of compost, and take a virtual tour of our organics composting site.
Field Green® Biosolids are the nutrient-rich organic product of wastewater treatment at WLSSD. Biosolids contain essential plant nutrients and organic matter and can be recycled as a fertilizer and soil conditioner. WLSSD operates a year-round land application program for agriculture and mining industries.
