Use every scrap...wood/paper/food
build/heat/eat/share...As a restaurant our overflow is in edibles. We compost most of it for our organic garden. We have discovered other ways to continue the cycle of recycle.

Our raw meat scraps are donated to a bird of prey sanctuary, vegetable scraps are also given to farm friends for the pigs to dine on.
Get in touch with local farmer friends and Catskill Animal Sanctuary, Woodstock Farm Sanctuary, Forsth Park-see if they could use any of your trimmings.
