Our Story
Chesapeake Compost Works was started by farmers who
understand that quality soil is the foundation of a clean
environment and a healthy food system. We were frustrated
to see so much wasted food scraps being sent to the landfill.
Chesapeake Compost Works was creates the best soil
available, closes the loop in our waste system, and supports
those making the Chesapeake Bay region a clean and
healthy place to live.
