Composting is an easy way to transform your landscape
trimmings and your fruit and vegetable kitchen scraps into a dark, crumbly,
sweet-smelling soil amendment. Gardeners refer to composting as
"turning your garbage into gold" because it saves landfill space,
conserves natural resources, and improves soil quality.
Composting is Recycling,
it:
Helps
your Garden and container plants by improving the fertility and health of your
soil
Saves
you Money by lowering garbage bills and replacing the need for commercial soil
amendments
Saves
Water by helping the soil hold moisture and reducing water runoff
Benefits the Environment by recycling valuable organic resources and reducing
the use of fuel to transport yard trimmings off-site for processing or disposal

The Recycling Center has THE HOME COMPOSTER available for purchase. These composters are bought in truck load quantities with grant funds by the Rolling Hills Resource Conservation and Development Council. Floyd County is one of the nine counties represented by this Council and this makes us able to sell these composters for $ 40.00. Their normal retail price is from $ 70 - 90 in gardening catalogs.
