    Eugene has
diverted 61.5% of
its trash from the
landﬁll. That’s the
highest diversion
rate in the state!
We have diverted
over 1,000 TONS
of food waste
from the landﬁll
since the program
began last year!
1,000
TONS!
We couldn’t do this without all of
our local partners and program participants!
