My city collects waste food for composting. There is /no seeds/ rule, likely because whoever uses the compost wants to control what they grow.
I make veg. broth by boiling veg. scraps for ~30—60 min., some of which are loaded with seeds. I’m wondering if the boiling kills the seed, in which case I wouldn’t likely cause problems by tossing the boiled scraps into the city’s compost.
'cause usually when people are being picky about this sort of things, “…no-stems-no-seeds” are listen in succession.
Right, but the city also requires people to separate food waste from garden waste. I’m not sure why, because I would expect both kinds of waste to be going to the same place. Garden waste would be full of stems (I haven’t read those rules on that), but stems that would turn into clones are probably less common in food waste.
Edibles hit different.
Probably because food waste may also contain meat which therefore carries a health risk and has to be processed separately.
