The Gloucester Township Ecological Center is operated by
the Gloucester Township Municipal Utilities Authority. It
has been permitted since 1991 and is fully licensed and
regulated by the New Jersey Department of Environmental
Protection. The center is located on an approximately 60
acre site just off Lower Landing Road and has the capacity
to process 126,800 cubic yards of combined materials
(grass and leaves). It is the largest compost facility in South
Jersey. It is presently not equipped to process brush and,
therefore, cannot accept brush or mixtures of brush and
grass.
The center recycles Gloucester Township's grass and leaves
and most communities from Camden County, as well as
commercial landscapers. Through a carefully controlled
process, the leaves and grass are converted into a high
grade of compost and topsoil. The process requires constant
attention, beginning with the formula "mix" of three parts
leaves to one part grass. Large piles (windrows) of grass
and leaves are constantly turned over to maximize their
oxygen content and lower their temperature. The moisture
and temperature content of the windrows are constantly
monitored for 6 - 9 months until the product is ready for
maturation.
100% organic compost-- made from recycled grass and
leaves.
-- Use on all flowers, vegetables, lawns and
shrubs
