USCC Target Organics Hub - World Soil Day

The US Composting Council celebrated World Soil Day this week by announcing our partnership with seven other international compost organizations to form the International Compost Alliance. We are thrilled to recognize and celebrate the importance of a healthy soil biome in the company of worldwide partners.

USCC members also recognize that compost application and use is a vital part of regenerating our soil system worldwide. This year, the Corporate Compost Leadership Council, in partnership with the Target Organics Committee and its members, launched the Target Organics Hub. This collection of resources is designed to assist in the process of setting up compost operations in the US with a focus on public private partnerships.

Under the Hub's Marketing Section, we outline the specific physical, chemical and biological benefits that compost has on soil. Mature, properly produced compost has also been gaining recognition for its ability to bind contaminants from polluted water and soil, control erosion, and degrade toxic chemicals.

The Hub puts the best information on composting from all the top resources in the US in one location. Please click here to view all of the topics and the listed categories available in the Hub.

The Target Organics Hub is your One-Stop-Shop for all of the information you need to develop a compost program. We have scoured all of the resources out there to bring all of the best information to you in one place. We have over 75 articles and resources compiled from dozens of organizations across the country to address the needs and questions of municipalities and organizations looking to start a compost facility.
