The Journey of Compost is a film about how food waste is handled at Eckerd College.  Showing every step of the process, the food waste starts off being dumped from the consumer’s plate, into a compost bin, and eventually ends up being made into up-cycled fertile soil that Eckerd’s garden team uses as a natural fertilizer.  From this, the garden team is able to grow food to feed the student population at Eckerd College such as bananas, kale, mangos, etc.
