1. Brooklyn has compost bins at most residences, and elsewhere (or at least it was a pilot program, i haven't visited in a year)
2. There are just amazing number of places to compost in brooklyn.
The local farm bit is just there to make them feel better about themselves.
That is, again, hipster.
A non-hipster would just be doing it, without making it seem like it's amazing and that they are doing it in some beautiful unique snowflake way.
- lanewinfield 12y agoI live in Brooklyn and do not have a compost bin at my apartment, do not know anybody with one, and don't know of a single place to bring compost in the borough. That being said, for the latter point, I haven't tried very hard to find one.
- DannyBee 12y agoNYC has a pilot program http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/brooklyn/city-pilot-composting-pick-program-spreads-park-slope-article-1.1575859 http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/brooklyn/city-pilot-comp... http://www.nytimes.com/2014/05/31/nyregion/composting-in-new-york-city-pilot-program-expands.html http://www.nytimes.com/2014/05/31/nyregion/composting-in-new... etc It's been expanding gradually. As for not knowing a single place, seriously, you aren't looking very hard, since "compost pile brooklyn" shows about 50 easy places
