ABOUT

​​​Welcome! Compostology was founded in 2020 by two high-schoolers, Angelina Xu and Advika Agarwal, with the aim of bringing food waste composting, recovery, and prevention programs to every school in Montgomery County, Maryland. Now a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we are pushing the movement globally as founders of the Coalition to ReImagine School Waste. We fund and collaborate with schools to save food that would otherwise be wasted - up to 2000 lbs monthly per school - while proposing and advocating for policies that systemize these programs, including our $1.25M Maryland state bill.

Ready to fight food waste while advancing equitable environmental & civic education? We welcome new members who want to launch programs in their schools, students who want to stay updated about advocacy opportunities, and other potential partners who want to have a Zoom chat to learn more.
