It’s time for a post about compost.
The Richmond Clean City Commision will be holding a one day event to help Richmonders start composting.
On September 6, 2008 from 9am to 4pm go to the Compost Bin Truck Load Sale at the Willow Lawn Shopping Center located at 1601 Willow Lawn Dr. You’ll find them in the parking lot between Kroger’s and Gold’s Gym.
Get $100 value for just $35! The Earth Machine is an 80 gallon capacity composting bin that fits in any vehicle. Made of recycled materials, over 2,500,000 of these machines are in use across the country!
Why compost you ask?
- Reduce your garbage output and gardening water use by 30%.
- Improve your soil’s health, water retention, and porosity.
- Reduce your carbon footprint.
- Inhibit plan diseases.
Cash or checks only! Remember this is a one time event. If you find it cheaper elsewhere, we’re calling the cops.
Call 804 646 8325 for more information.

good to see a post on compost;-) Now if only they would do away with leaf pick-up and get folks to mulch their leaves with the mower and compost the excess…Less fertilizer = healthier waterways! And talk about a smaller carbon footprint!
