Napa Recycling & Composting Facility, with lunch at Southside Napa - a local green business and wine tasting at Clos du Val - a Napa Green certified winery!


Many of you are well-schooled on collection programs and outreach, but what happens next? Come see the next steps in closing the loop.  We are lucky to have local Bay Area facilities with updated technologies to process collected materials into usable feedstocks.

Napa Recycling & Composting Facility has an aerated static pile composting system, as well as an organics de-packager, organics pre-processing line, receiving building, and all electric equipment to sort and process 100,000+tons/year of organics into feedstock for the onsite composting facility.   Many of us have seen MRF sort lines for recyclables, but you also need to see an organics sort line and processing operation to get insight into how California is going to get to the state’s lofty organics diversion goals.  And, while we’re at it, you’ll also get a glimpse into the MRF as well - including the new glass cleaning system and sorting robot.

And, since we’ll be in Napa… we will have lunch at Southside Napa - a local green business, provided by Napa Recycling and Waste Services, followed by wine tasting at the beautiful Clos du Val, a Napa Green certified winery!
