Klaus (they/them) went to college in upstate New York. They quickly found community in the environmental protection groups on and off campus. They were active in the fight to Ban Fracking in NY State, and organized extensively around higher education affordability.

They lived in California, where they saw firsthand the devastating effects of extreme climate change and their passion for changing our world for the better intensified. Always drawn to the Richmond area, Klaus relocated and decided to make composting both easy and accessible by creating Enrich Compost.

The idea is to have people make a conscious choice about their waste. Instead of ending up in the ever shrinking landfill space and polluting the atmosphere, folks can divert their food and lawn scraps and actually have it transform into compost to enrich the environment. Enrich Compost is partnering with local businesses and Richmond residents who are ready to do something about the climate and reduce their environmental footprint.

Enrich Compost is proudly Queer owned and operated.
