Composting at Mt. Airy Nexus Made Easy with the Help of Tim Bennett
Composting in Philadelphia has not always been so easy. This is what inspired Tim Bennett of Bennett Compost to start his own company to help make Philadelphia a greener city.

He quickly discovered that there were no on-site composting site for city residents. This may discourage most folks, but not Tim.
