New York Harbor School students collaborate with Earth Matter, a nonprofit organization helping the public with organic collection into compost. Their goal is to reduce organic waste put into garbage by encouraging and teaching people to compost, which is precisely what happens here. Earth Matter teaches the students how to compost, and then they use that knowledge to compost for the actual school, which is why they have that big tub. It's used to grind up the organic waste and make it into compost to fertilize the plants. Over the last three years, students have diverted about 30,000 lbs of school organic waste.

The Governor's Island Harbor School farm is a small-medium sized super clean farm in front of the school and thrives with wildlife. Even though there's trash and recycling bins all over the island there is still a lot of trash around the island, however this problem can be easily solved by the community picking up any trash they see and properly sorting it.  This is very important because properly sorting materials can result in healthy soil for food to grow, and less pollution.  Organic collection is collect at the school and turned into compost.  By using food scraps and waste it can benefit the harbor farm by making nice soil for food to grow.  Additionally to help with zero waste you can re-use and recycle objects so that it doesn't go to waste! We do this work with Earth Matter. See more info:  https://earthmatter.org/
