♻️Become part of the circular economy with our Apollo Bay locally produced soil enhancer / plant food. 🌿
WHAT IS IT? Food waste is collected from Apollo Bay businesses and added to the compost machine. The compost machine uses warmth, aeration and friendly microbes to break down the waste quickly. Rather than heading to landfill, this waste remains local, and is turned into garden fertiliser to feed our plants and soil.
WHERE CAN I PURCHASE? Apollo Bay Home Hardware, Apollo Bay Farmers Market or direct from the Compost Shed (35 Costin Street, Apollo Bay) Mon & Fridays 8:30am
HOW MUCH IS IT? Only $5 (2kg), $15 (7.5kg) or $25 (15kg)
HOW DO I USE IT? The plant food contains a large amount of nutrients concentrated in a small amount of material. It is similar to blood and bone and is best spread out or mixed well into soil. Best to add in spring and summer.
Established gardens: monthly surface application, watered in.
Before planting: a generous amount mixed into your planting bed.
HOW CAN I GET INVOLVED? Our dedicated volunteer champions collect, process, bag, and sell the plant food.
Call Ngaira on 0434 492 155 to get involved, ask a question, or visit the compost shed.
