What happens to the green waste, brush and tree trimmings collected from homes and businesses throughout Central Texas?
At Garden-Ville, we believe organic materials can have a second life. Through a closed-loop process, locally collected green waste, brush, tree trimmings and other organic materials can be transformed into compost, premium soils and mulches designed for gardens, yards, and landscapes.
It’s a process that helps keep compostable materials in use and turns what was once considered waste into products that can help Central Texas landscapes grow.
1. Collect: Bringing Organic Materials Together
The process begins with collection.
Through TDS curbside collection, green waste, brush, tree trimmings, and other organic materials are gathered from communities throughout Central Texas. These materials can come from residential collection services, school districts, commercial customers, landscaping projects and other local sources.
Instead of sending these materials to a landfill, they can be collected and managed with their potential for reuse in mind.
2. Process: Turning Green Waste Into Compost
Once collected, organic materials are brought to processing facilities in Creedmoor, where they are processed on-site using proven composting methods.
Through the composting process, organic materials break down and are transformed into finished compost. What began as tree trimmings, brush and yard waste becomes a useful material that can be used to support healthy soil and plant growth.
Processing these materials close to home is an important part of the closed-loop approach, helping turn locally collected organic materials into products that can be used throughout Central Texas.
3. Blend: Creating Soils, Mixes and Mulches
Finished compost can then be blended into a variety of Garden-Ville products, including premium soils, specialty mixes and mulches.
Garden-Ville transforms these materials into products designed for a range of gardening and landscaping needs. From compost and soil amendments to mulches and planting mixes, Garden-Ville products give homeowners, gardeners, businesses and landscapers options for building and maintaining healthy landscapes.
4. Grow: Bringing It Back to Central Texas Landscapes
The final step is where the process comes full circle.
Garden-Ville products are available at locations throughout Central Texas in both bagged and bulk quantities, making it easy for homeowners, gardeners, businesses and landscapers to put these materials back to work.
The green waste collected from homes and communities can ultimately return to local landscapes as compost, soil and mulch—helping support gardens, lawns, trees and new growth.
A Full-Circle Approach to Organic Materials
The journey from green waste to gardens shows what can happen when organic materials are viewed as resources rather than something to simply throw away.
Collect. Process. Blend. Grow.
It’s a full-circle approach that helps keep organic materials in use while creating products made for the landscapes and gardens of Central Texas.
