Bennett Compost, established in 2009, faced challenges due to the lack of a permit for processing compost in urban environments. However, through a partnership with Philly Parks & Rec, they developed Pennsylvania’s first small-scale composting permit and built the state’s first urban composting facility. In a unique arrangement, Bennett Compost utilizes a former maintenance facility owned by Parks and Rec in exchange for donating 75 cubic yards of compost annually to city gardens and collecting food scraps from the city’s recreation centers.
