Let's Go Compost is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit empowering K-12 public schools with the tools, training, and resources to reduce food waste through real-world STEAM/STEM education.

Let’s Go Compost started with a simple idea in 2020, when our founder, Lauren Click, sparked a passion for composting during lockdown. What began as a DIY project using repurposed bakery buckets quickly grew into a mission: providing educators with free composting tools and curriculum.

Today, Let’s Go Compost is a national nonprofit making composting accessible, affordable, and scalable across the United States. Our programs equip schools with worm farms, training, and classroom resources that empower students to take action on food waste. Our work has earned international recognition from the U.S. Composting Council, United Nations, and the U.S. Green Building Council. 

Through our strategic, systems-based approach, we’re proving that composting is an industry-driven solution that strengthens local economies, reduces climate impact, and makes food waste diversion a standard practice in schools and communities.
