The Kwakiutl First Nation is developing a composting business to address landfill waste. At a District of Port Hardy council meeting, Megan Fee requested support for a business plan and funding from Island Coastal Economic Trust.

The facility aims to process organic waste, including food and yard waste, to produce compost for agricultural use, contributing to the Province's Clean BC Strategy goal of diverting 90% of organic waste from landfills by 2030. The council approved a letter of support for the initiative.
