Helping steward the mission of BioCycle since 1978 has been an incredible experience, and an honor. Today, we announce the next chapter.

By Nora Goldstein

In 1960, my father, Jerome (Jerry) Goldstein, launched the journal, Compost Science, as an offshoot of Organic Gardening and Farming magazine. The concept was to have a publication that covered the broader field of organic residuals recycling beyond gardens and farms.

In 1978, Jerry and Ina Goldstein had the opportunity to acquire Compost Science and form a new family publishing company, The JG Press, Inc. In 1981, the publication name was changed to BioCycle, short for biological organics recycling. Myself and my sister, Rill Ann Miller, had  joined the family business when it started in 1978. Over time, the company was passed along to Rill and I, and together, we carried the legacy forward.

BioCycle had a vision far ahead of its time: to champion the recycling of organic materials, spotlight innovation, and cultivate community among those advancing the circular use of resources.
