About Compost Check
Our mission is to make composting accessible to everyone and reduce waste globally.
From Idea to Impact
Compost Check began in 2022 when our founder, an avid gardener, realized how difficult it was to know what could be safely composted. After mistakenly adding materials that disrupted her compost pile, she decided to create a solution.
What started as a simple spreadsheet grew into a comprehensive database and eventually the tool you see today. Our team of environmental scientists, composting experts, and developers work together to provide accurate, helpful information to composters worldwide.
