~ As the winter months approach, the opportunity to bring food scraps to neighborhood farmers' markets has come to an end for 2025. However, residents of Dane County can still participate in the county's Scrap Stops program. This initiative allows individuals to drop off their food scraps at designated kiosks throughout the county. To register for a kiosk location and learn more about this project, interested individuals can visit the Dane County website.
The City of Madison's farmers' market food scraps drop-off sites will return in the spring of 2026. More information regarding hours and locations for the 2026 market season will be announced at a later date.
This year, the city set a goal of collecting 40,000 pounds of food scraps at the three farmers' market locations. This weight goal is equivalent to approximately 20 large adult bison, or a small herd. The final day for collecting food scraps was Saturday, November 1st at the Westside Community Market. As that day began, there were still 763 pounds left to reach the goal. With cold and rainy weather, expectations were low.

However, Madison residents showed up in full force. A total of 1,190 pounds were collected on Saturday alone, surpassing the goal and reaching a final tally of 40,427.1 pounds for the year. This success would not have been possible without the support and participation of everyone who visited the market sites.
For those interested in learning more about food scraps and how to prevent them or properly compost them, please visit the Food Scraps website for additional information. The city is grateful for everyone's efforts in making this year's food scraps collection a resounding success.
