Did you know that last fall Cambridge Department of Public Works (DPW) collected 15,000 barrels of yard waste? Thanks to help from residents, that's 833 tons of leaves that didn't clog storm drains or pollute our local rivers and streams.

Yard waste collected in Cambridge is composted to make rich soil - further reducing our city's climate impact.
