Waste Free Greenwich challenges our community to decrease food waste by at least 25% through easy, actionable steps like prevention, donation and composting.

The Town of Greenwich, in partnership with Waste Free Greenwich, launched a municipal food scrap recycling program for the Town of Greenwich in June 2020. To date, residents have diverted over 600,000 lbs of food scraps from the waste stream!

Waste Free Greenwich, in partnership with Food Rescue US, Fairfield County and Greenwich Audubon, invite local gardeners to donate homegrown produce to hunger relief efforts in our community. Whether you’re growing on a patio or a whole backyard, every little bit will help our neighbors in need.

The Greenwich Recycling Advisory Board now provides two options for textile recycling - convenient collection bins and a new home pick up program - through its partnership with Helpsy. This program saves the town money, conserves natural resources and makes recycling simple and easy for residents.

Waste Free Greenwich supports Collective Oyster Recycling & Restoration in their mission to reduce waste by recycling shells from restaurants and events to restore vital oyster reefs and marine habitats in the Long Island Sound.
