City Soil operates the City of Boston composting facility in Mattapan , at the site previously occupied by the infamous Mattapan State Hospital . The location is now a depository for the city ’ s collected yard waste and tree leaves .
They process this collection by purging it of various unwanted materials like trash and lead , to create a rich dark

compost . They then provide compost to over 80 community gardens throughout the city .
They also use the compost , along with other ingredients like biochar and worm castings , to develop growing mixes that are used by various entities , both public and private , in applications like rooftop growing systems , urban agriculture programs and classroom demonstrations .
In the past year they have set up a greenhouse which is heated by biomass energy derived from a massive pile of leaf mold ( it heats up to about 140 ° F ). The plan is to test their e soil mixes and sustainably grow local food for sale and for free distribution to area food pantries .
