\u2026I started Apple Rabbit after managing a popular restaurant in the city that I live in. I was watching food get thrown away constantly and so I just kind of got to thinking like isn\u2019t there something for recycling food the same way we recycle glass and paper?\u2026this was something that they were interested in and so there was definitely a viable market for it.<\/h2>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n

Tiffany Bess:<\/td>\r\nAll the people just kind of encouraging you to just go out and be in your community. You know, regardless if it\u2019s just for composting but just to have these sort of interactions and these personal experiences with everybody. It\u2019s really nice to see people that feel that way and are reiterating it and reiterating it and encouraging that community feeling. It\u2019s very important to me.<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Nick Stumo-Langer:<\/td>\r\nWelcome to the third episode of The Composting for Community Podcast from the Institute for Local Self-Reliance.

And now, here\u2019s Tiffany.\r\n\r\nI\u2019m here at the Compost 2017 USCC\u2019s Conference on Composting, sitting here with Tiffany Bess, doing some interviews, raising up the voice of community composters, and generally kind of getting the sense of how this all works. So, Tiffany I\u2019ll just have you introduce yourself and say a few words about kind of why you are here and what you do.<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Tiffany Bess:<\/td>\r\nMy name is Tiffany Bess and I am the founder of Apple Rabbit Compost in Jacksonville, Florida which is actually where the 2016 conference was. So I was able to attend that conference last year and right before I started my business. It was really, really inspiring to be able to be around so many different people like that so that\u2019s why I\u2019m here this year, to kind of get that same experience. Especially, since I know more than I did last year. So.<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Nick Stumo-Langer:<\/td>\r\nDefinitely, yeah, that\u2019s excellent. It\u2019s kind of cool to be able to see the life cycle of the business and what you\u2019re doing year to year for the compost stuff.\r\n\r\nSo I\u2019ll start with an easy question, one that a lot of people are saying okay I can get a sense of how this is going. What\u2019s for you, what\u2019s the power of compost and composting?<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Tiffany Bess:<\/td>\r\nFor me, it\u2019s really a connection with the community of the area of the city that I live in is very tight knit. It\u2019s very family-oriented it seems like. And so compost is such a beautiful thing because it\u2019s taking death and turning it into life again and it\u2019s just very symbolic of the life cycle. And it\u2019s just a very good way to empower our community and empower our fellow people by giving them something that they can create from something that\u2019s normally just discarded.<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Nick Stumo-Langer:<\/td>\r\nDefinitely, yeah. So maybe talk a little bit about why you wanted to start Apple Rabbit Compost, why you wanted to kind of get that going, and what parts of your community is that serving, and kind of how is that woven into the fabric of your community now.<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Tiffany Bess:<\/td>\r\nSo I started Apple Rabbit after managing a popular restaurant in the city that I live in. I was watching food get thrown away constantly and so I just kind of got to thinking like isn\u2019t there something for recycling food the same way we recycle glass and paper? So I did some research into what my city had to offer and it was nothing. So that was a little disheartening. And I kind of put the idea on the shelf and a few months later I was like there\u2019s still nothing like this around, I want to start it, I want to provide this service to people that I know would enjoy it. Being in the restaurant industry I had a lot of connections with other restaurateurs and saw that they, this was something that they were interested in and so there was definitely a viable market for it.<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Nick Stumo-Langer:<\/td>\r\nThat\u2019s great. I mean yeah it seems like filling a need and kind of when you do literally have nothing for composting in a community then wherever you start, whatever you\u2019re doing is a good place to go.\r\n\r\nSo moving forward from that you said that you\u2019re in primarily doing residential. How does your business on a day to day basis, what does that look like? What are you, what are you doing, what\u2019s your customer base look like, commercial\/residential? Also, how engaged are you with the community?\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Tiffany Bess:<\/td>\r\nSo I am very involved in the community. I\u2019ve actually been asked to be a contributor for one of our local publications, Edible Northeast Florida. That is a national publication so most other regions do have a publication, a copy where they are. I\u2019m also part of our green action committee for a local event in our city so with that we\u2019re just kind of trying to act as a catalyst for other events. And show them that you can be sustainable and that you can be green without being a hippie-dippy-granola festival. It can just be green as an added bonus. I also do a lot of volunteer work with like our river keeper as well as I\u2019ve done some volunteer work at our local college as well. I\u2019m definitely always out and about in the city.<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Nick Stumo-Langer:<\/td>\r\nGreat. So education\u2019s a big part of composting. A lot of people will be like how do I turn food scraps, how do I turn this banana peel into dirt that I can plant in the ground, that type of thing. What kind of relationship do you have with education and outreach, those types of parts in Jacksonville?<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Tiffany Bess:<\/td>\r\nRight now I don\u2019t have a lot of outreach like that. I still work a full time job so I don\u2019t have a lot of opportunity to go out to schools like I want to. I do have a lot of interest from home school groups that are very interested in coming out and learning about composting. I have had one home school group that did go out to the farm and they took a look at our compost site. It was like a group of about 6 children. We just kind of walked them around and showed them the pile of the food that just came from a garbage can. And then walked them, showed them the different processes and how at the end of this line we have this wonderful dirt that they all played around in. They got really excited about it and they also liked animals on the farm of course, but. They were just really excited to learn that this food that they kind of take for granted can actually be something really cool. Like what kid doesn\u2019t love dirt?<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Nick Stumo-Langer:<\/td>\r\nYeah exactly, that\u2019s good! What kid doesn\u2019t love dirt? That\u2019s like a great slogan you can do for that outreach.\r\n\r\nSo another thing that I think\u2019s important for a lot of folks especially if they are looking to replicate some of these things in their own community is what are the challenges you\u2019ve run into? I know some people at the conference so far have talked about policy challenges or access to capital. You know being able to have the money to start up those types of things. So what have you found to be challenging in this field?<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Tiffany Bess:<\/td>\r\nDefinitely the money aspect. I\u2019ve been growing very slowly so I haven\u2019t had the need for quite a lot of money quite yet. But now I\u2019m getting to the point where I can\u2019t really be using a pitch fork easily anymore. I would love to have a front loader for the tractor that\u2019s on the property. So getting money for some bigger pieces of equipment like that like chippers, shredders, and things that\u2019s definitely an issue. As well as being to show people are worth and that what we are doing costs money and it does, it is worth money, it is worth paying for. So that\u2019s honestly the biggest hurdle I\u2019ve had is just convincing people that this, is much as it\u2019s a labor of love and I do it for next to nothing, I can\u2019t do it for completely nothing. So like that\u2019s kind of been my biggest issue, is just kind of introducing people to the idea and showing them its worth and making them see what it is.<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Nick Stumo-Langer:<\/td>\r\nDefinitely. What\u2019s the kind of relationship that you had with your local government, like Jacksonville City Council or maybe Department of Parks that type of thing? I don\u2019t know exactly what the relationship looks like but anything you\u2019ve done or encountered there?<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Tiffany Bess:<\/td>\r\nI don\u2019t have a lot of relationship with them. The only. This is kind of beside the point, but the only relationship I\u2019ve had with our Parks and Recreation Director is actually to ask about why our recycle bins in our city parks are not being recycled. They are still being sent to the landfill and our residents don\u2019t know this. So that\u2019s the only.<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Nick Stumo-Langer:<\/td>\r\nNot the best interaction for that, yeah.<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Tiffany Bess:<\/td>\r\nSo far, it\u2019s, it hasn\u2019t been the best. But, he\u2019s very willing to work with me and hopefully kind of either remove those bins or maybe do an actual recycling pick up service, or at least paint them so people are deceived anymore. Cause I know a lot of people that would hold onto their recyclables if they knew that that wasn\u2019t going to be going where it\u2019s supposed to.<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Nick Stumo-Langer:<\/td>\r\nYes, yes, definitely. I\u2019m sure there\u2019s a lot of people that are saying just take it home or something like that so that\u2019s interesting relationship with that.\r\n\r\nSo kind of looking at the conference here and you know we had an all day workshop on Monday where we heard from a lot of different community composters, various different scales and various different areas of the country. What\u2019s, what do you think is the best thing that you\u2019ve learned from them and their, kind of offering the different parts of the business model but also, like, the actual, the impact, the community engagement parts. What did you take away from that?<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Tiffany Bess:<\/td>\r\nWell, a couple of things that people showed us at the workshop yesterday. One of the things that I really, really enjoyed was the rewards program. That one was very interesting to me. I for. It was Dustin\u2019s business and so I really liked that a lot. As well as all the people just encouraging you to just go out and be in your community. Regardless if it\u2019s just for composting but that just to have these sort of interactions and these personal experiences with everybody. It\u2019s really nice to see people that feel that way and are reiterating it and reiterating it and encouraging that community feelings. It\u2019s very important to me.<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Nick Stumo-Langer:<\/td>\r\nYeah, definitely. It\u2019s something where I think we can all learn from the challenges and from the successes of a lot of people\u2019ve had. And I like to say that there\u2019s not one like something that is right for Jacksonville or something that\u2019s right for Austin is not going to be right for another city that has different circumstances. So we definitely we want to blast as many different models out there as possible because each community is different. And you know, you\u2019re closing different gaps. You\u2019re saying you\u2019re having a really healthy start up culture. And maybe that\u2019s a good way to say at the ground level, like you want to be composting so that type of thing.\r\n\r\nIs there anything else you want to share with us for this interview?<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Tiffany Bess:<\/td>\r\nSo just kind of touching on different models and what doesn\u2019t work for one versus the other. Like Kat with Tilthy Rich she does it all by bike. She\u2019s an awesome, powerful woman and I would love to go that route but Jacksonville is so sprawling, it is huge like land-wise. And so that hasn\u2019t been something that I\u2019ve been able to do quite yet. It\u2019s really encouraging to see these people that are still saying even if you aren\u2019t able to do it how I\u2019m doing it you\u2019re still doing it the right way for you. So that\u2019s been very positive and just kind of affirming that things are going okay and that I\u2019m on the right track.<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Nick Stumo-Langer:<\/td>\r\nThat\u2019s a great message to blast out to anyone that might be listening to this too, so that\u2019s great. Alright, so I\u2019ll end this with the recommendation, the recommendation of what you\u2019re reading, listening to, anything you\u2019re interested in. Just so people can go right from this conversation where you\u2019re getting your perspective to something that\u2019s informed you, that type of thing. So do you have a recommendation for us?<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Tiffany Bess:<\/td>\r\nYeah, so starting out the one of the biggest people I paid attention to was Dr. Elaine Ingram. She was definitely one of the compost pioneers that I loved and loved listening to, it was very informational. As well as books, you can never get enough books, especially like Rodale\u2019s Organic. They have several composting books and they are just chock full of information, everything you need to know. Honestly, if you have one of those books you probably don\u2019t need any of the other ones because it probably has everything that you need to learn about composting.<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Nick Stumo-Langer:<\/td>\r\nThat\u2019s great. Like an all sources guide. That\u2019s great. Alright, well thank you so much Tiffany for being here with me. I hope you had a good time here.<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
Tiffany Bess:<\/td>\r\nI did, thank you so much for having me. This was an amazing experience and what a wonderful way to end it.<\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n
