Vermont Organics Recycling Summit
Transforming Organics. Empowering People. Strengthening Systems.
Each year, VORS gathers composters, haulers, educators and students, businesses, community leaders, and policymakers.
Together, they explore how to transform food scraps and other organic materials into valuable products that support our environment, economy, and communities.
Through dynamic sessions and hands-on networking, VORS sparks innovation, strengthens connections, and drives action toward a more resilient, resourceful future.
Motivated by the Universal Recycling law—which bans food scraps and other organics from the landfill—Vermonters are making a difference as they reduce food waste, partner with food shelves and businesses, and use compost to build healthier soils and more resilient communities.
In partnership with the ANR Solid Waste Program, the Composting Association of Vermont has hosted all but one of the past Summits.
