From February through March, the WCA ran a two-month neighborhood composting campaign in partnership with Compost Crew. Our ambitious goal was to sign up 70 new households at a special discounted rate of $25/month (down from the regular $32/month). While we didn’t reach our target, Compost Crew is continuing to support our community by offering a new discounted rate of $28/month for all new sign-ups—and for those who joined during the February–March campaign.
Our goal remains the same: to encourage community-wide composting as a meaningful step toward reducing methane emissions and sending a clear message to Montgomery County that residents support composting as a public service worth endorsing and expanding.

Here’s the deal, in a nutshell:
- You can sign up directly on Compost Crew's website. Use the coupon WCACOMPOSTS.
- This offer is available to new members only.
- If we sign up 70 new households by March 31, 2025, the discount rate of $25/month will be locked in for all participants.
- If we don’t reach the goal, the rate will revert to $32/month.
- You can opt out of the service at any time, so there’s no long-term commitment.

When communities compost, it sends a powerful message to local governments. When enough residents take action, counties take notice. This grassroots momentum can encourage officials to explore county-wide composting initiatives, leading to broader accessibility, infrastructure improvements, and even policy changes that make composting a standard part of waste management for all residents.
