Project Description

Request for Qualifications to Provide On-Site Composting Workshops in Sonoma County

May 21, 2026

Zero Waste Sonoma (AGENCY) is seeking qualifications for an individual or entity (PROPOSER) to provide technical, on-site composting workshops to benefit orchards, vineyards, schools, community gardens, and other crop growers in Sonoma County. The purpose of this project is to encourage small to medium-scale local composting and reduce greenhouse gas emissions from transporting agricultural materials and/or food scraps out of the county for disposal or composting. Since growers must often pay to haul finished compost back into the county, empowering growers to make their own compost will also help reduce costs, increase compost use and local nutrient cycling, and increase community-resiliency.

The AGENCY will select one proposal to award a $45,000 agreement to provide technical, on-site composting workshops. The term of the agreement is suggested to be June 19, 2026 – June 1, 2027. PROPOSERs may propose a shorter term but not longer. The awarded PROPOSER will enter into a professional services agreement (Exhibit A) with the AGENCY for the project. The PROPOSER’s scope of work will be negotiated and finalized with the AGENCY before inclusion into the agreement for execution.
