Projects
Through the Implementing the Food Recovery Hierarchy in Rural Vermont Communities NERC worked with communities in Vermont to reduce food scraps, promote increased food recovery and donation options, and divert food scraps to composting. The project was funded through a grant from the United States Department of Agriculture Rural Utility Services Solid Waste Management Grant Program.
