Midwest Organics Recycling (MOR) is a commercial composting operation located on Darrell Road NE of Island Lake. MOR was established to explore the environmental benefits associated with manure composting, while looking for a solution to sustain the viability of one of the last dairy operations in a quickly urbanizing county. Over the years, their operation has grown substantially, enabling them to offer organic waste processing services and provide customers with Organimix compost in McHenry County, Lake County and surrounding areas..
Andy Klink, General Manager at MOR for 10 years will talk about where our yard waste goes, the benefits of composting, and the State of Composting in Illinois. He obtained his BA in Business and Spanish from Augustana College. He lives in Crystal Lake with his wife Riley and 3 kids.
