Free Compost!

Shovel-It-Yourself – Waterlane Leisure Centre, Lowestoft, Friday 12 May 10:00-15:00

A free event at which compost, processed from the material that residents separate into their garden waste bins in east Suffolk, will be given away free as a thank you to residents for recycling and closing the loop between the garden waste we generate and the compost we add to the soil and grow with. This event will help mark International Compost Awareness Week to help celebrate composting as the most sustainable way of dealing with our garden waste.

Members of the community are welcome to come along with their shovel and bag or container (or wheelbarrow if you are local and can travel on foot) and take some compost away for their gardens or allotments, and are welcome to take some for their relatives or neighbours who might otherwise be unable to access the event. No need to register or book.
