Soil Incorporation
If you are looking for a simple and maintenance-free method of composting food waste, soil incorporation may be right for you! Because Baltimore County regulations prohibit composting of food waste in compost piles or bins, soil incorporation is a simple and easy alternative. This practice also reduces the waste you generate and extends the life of the County’s landfill. Soil incorporation can be thought of as creating a great meal to feed your soil with valuable nutrients.
