Deerfield Beach will hold the official grand opening of its new compost site on Saturday, Nov. 14, starting at 10 a.m. at the Bernard Adams Municipal Complex, 401 SW 4th St.
The city is partnering with Filthy Organics on the facility, which turns organic material into nutrient-rich compost. City officials say the site supports Deerfield Beach’s sustainability and waste reduction goals by keeping that material out of local landfills.
The morning includes presentations on the goals and expected impact of the city’s compost program, a ribbon-cutting ceremony, a guided tour of the composting infrastructure and a live demonstration of processing equipment.
The event is free and open to the public. City staff will be on hand to answer questions about composting guidelines and municipal sustainability programs. Residents who want more information or plan to attend can contact hsilverstone@deerfieldbeachfl.gov.
