Reduce your Waste

• Landfills keep growing and new cells cost millions of dollars

• 40% of the waste in Prince Albert is organics (In other words, it could be composted)

·Help your plants grow

The nutrients in Compost act as a slow release fertilizer

Compost feeds your soil, so your soil can feed your plants

Compost helps the soil hold water, when soil holds water it does not run off the top, and you have to water less

·Bring life to your soil

Healthy soil is full of life! Let the life in the soil do the work for your plants

Compost is like a probiotic for your soil

Compost is the food that supports the whole soil food web

·Reduce your Carbon Footprint

Organic matter (food scraps, yard waste etc…) breaks down without oxygen when dumped in the landfill creating methane gas (a potent greenhouse gas, not to mention smelly)

Keep Carbon locked into the soil instead of the atmosphere

·Humans need to Eat, clean water and clean air to live

If you eat, you need soil. Whether it’s the plants we eat, or the plants that what we eat, eats.  When we make compost, we return those nutrients to the soil, returning it back into our food, keeping us and the soil healthy.   Nutrients are then never lost to the landfill.

Soil and the living plants that grow in soil help to keep our water and air clean..
