WORC is governed by a 22-member Board of Directors.  Meet our Board members who are some of the best and the brightest leaders in the organic recycling community.

The WORC Board Meetings are open to all members. If you would like to attend, please contact the WORC office at least three days prior to the meeting. If you would like to buy lunch, we will also need to know that at least three days in advance. Lunch costs are generally $5-$10/person. Also contact the WORC office for meeting location.
