Compost Crew
Compost Crew is a Rockville, Maryland-based organics recycling company that collects food scraps from homes, businesses, schools and local governments across the Greater Washington (DMV) area and turns them into nutrient-rich compost. Founded in 2011 and acquired by CEO Ben Parry in 2018, the company has grown from three trucks into a regional operation that has diverted tens of thousands of tons of food waste from landfills. Operating a network of distributed 'Compost Outposts' in partnership with local farms, Compost Crew aims to make food waste recycling a mainstream, everyday habit while rebuilding regional soil health.
