How to Use Our Compost
Use compost as a supplement to any soil, rather than in place of soil – a common mistake
- Spread a layer up to 5 cm deep over the garden beds and around shrubs but not in direct contact with plants
- Mix into your soil with a garden fork and water well
Testing and Nutrition:
- We perform a range of tests to understand the composition of our compost and to ensure it is mature and ready for use.
