Composting & Low Input Lawn Care

Food and Yard wastes take up 14% of the space in our landfills, meanwhile gardens and lawns need fertilizer and organic material. Composting can solve these two problems at once.

Common composting situations

  • Large amounts of leaves and or Pine Needles
  • Kitchen wastes
  • Garden wastes
  • Winter composting
  • Compost piles that take too long to decompose
  • Compost piles that smell bad
  • Bears and other unwanted visitors
