With eliminating plastic bags, the implementation of Leaf Burritos® by the University of Kentucky Grounds Department is fundamental to achieving our goals of having 100% diversion of green waste from the local solid waste stream. UK processes composting for reuse on campus and we use reusable Leaf Burritos for efficient and eco-friendly collections and transportation.
