Monroe County Composting Survey
PLEASE FILL OUT THIS SURVEY!
Monroe County DES is sponsoring an Organics Management Plan survey. The survey asks for input about how you feel about composting, how much you might be willing to pay for it, etc. It would be great to have as many pro-composting allies complete the survey as possible.
