Serving Our Planet

Champ Landfill Sustainability Campus

The Issue

Champ Landfill, a long-standing asset in Maryland Heights, Missouri, sought to engage with and educate the community on sustainability, biodiversity, and environmental stewardship.

Our Solution

In partnership with the City of Maryland Heights, we established a Sustainability Campus adjacent to our Champ Landfill. Open to the public and at no cost, this campus offers interactive workshops, greenhouses, bee hives, a nature trail, and educational programs, all designed to empower the community through education and sustainable practices.

The Benefit

By educating the community on environmental stewardship, the Sustainability Campus fosters a sustainable future for Maryland Heights while further strengthening community relations. The site also acts as a community center, hosting numerous events and activities such as blood drives, ice cream socials, and science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (S.T.E.M.) educational sessions that foster social cohesion and enhance the well-being of the community.
