Coupons have also been distributed to 300,000 City of Seattle homes through Seattle Public Utilities CurbWaste & Conserve newsletter. Coupons are also available in the Pacific Northwest Magazine of the Sunday Seattle Times and at www.seattletimes.com during the month of April.
Compost Days is a “thank you” to Seattle residents for helping Seattle divert almost 80,000 tons of food and yard waste from the landfill to curbside composting in 2010.
