How FJDMV is helping

We ensure that any spoiled food we receive is promptly and responsibly composted.

Our Partners

• Compost Cab picks up and composts the spoiled food we receive from donors free of charge on an as needed basis. They have picked up hundreds of rotten cantaloupes, moldy bread, etc.
