- It saves money by avoiding having to buy compost.
- It provides a free soil conditioner and helps soil retain moisture.
- It improves plant health and growth – and can increase yields of fruit, vegetables, flowers and herbs.
The Home Composting campaign is supported by the Scottish Government and this allows us to offer a range of compost bins at reduced prices.
