An expansion at the Balls Ford Road Composting Facility has nearly tripled its capacity to produce compost. In addition to yard waste, the facility can recycle food waste using state-of-the-art equipment and processes.
The expansion of the facility, which was established in 1994, is a public partnership between USCC member Freestate Farms and USCC member Prince William County. Under an agreement, Freestate Farms, which has operated the facility since 2015, financed and expanded the operation without using any county funding. Prince William County will pay Freestate Farms to turn its organic waste into high-quality compost and sell it.
