Capturing Value in ColoradoRecycle Colorado is a 501(c)3, statewide nonprofit organization advancing circular economies & improving recycling across the state of Colorado. Our members share a vision to transform Colorado into a national leader in waste reduction, recovery, and diversion.Our membership consists of 148 organizations and individuals who collaborate on problems, solutions, projects, and policy. With the support of our members, we are able to plan an annual Summit for Recycling conference, webinars, and many other educational events throughout the year. Colorado's recycling rate of 16% does not reflect the conservation mindset of its residents. We believe that communication between all aspects of the waste stream, haulers, producers, users, recyclers, composters, and cities and counties, is vital to achieving Colorado's diversion goals which preserve the state's beauty and resources.

We would love your help gathering responses from breweries, farmers & ranchers at your local markets, or anyone else with organic waste that could contribute valuable information! If you are interested in helping with citizen science this summer while visiting breweries and farmers markets, please fill out the following form and we will send you a folder with all the materials you need! You can chat with as many or as few people as you would like. You only need to ask them 4 essential questions. If the conversation flows from there, even better!
