Annual Compost Sale - cancelled
 
We regret to say that we will not be able to run our usual compost sale this year, due to the on-going pandemic. It would not be possible to have teams of students working together to pack the bags.
 
Now is a great opportunity for gardening, which can be done without risk to oneself or others.
 
We hope to be back next year! In the meantime, we wish all our customers a happy and successful gardening experience.
