Calling all green thumbs: free community compost day returns this spring!
This Spring, the City of Greater Geelong is teaming up with local community gardens to give away free samples of Better for Geelong compost – made locally from recycled green bin waste.

On Saturday, 25 October from 9 am to 12 pm, participating community gardens will offer free compost samples ahead of the launch of the new bagged product at selected local garden centres.

Residents can get their compost sample by visiting one of the participating community gardens on the day:
Surfside Primary School Kitchen Garden, John Dory Drive, Ocean
Grove
Ocean Grove Community Garden, 101 The Terrace, Ocean Grove
Lara Community Garden, Scuti Court, Lara (next to the Lara and
District Men’s Shed)
Barwon Heads Community Garden, 38 Geelong Road, Barwon
Heads
Grovedale Community Garden, 45-47 Heyers Road, Grovedale
Springdale Community Garden, 276 Jetty Road, Curlewis
Chilwell Community Garden, 21 Mervyn Street, Newtown
Murnong Community Garden, 138 Weddell Road, North Geelong
Breamlea Community Garden, 157-183 Breamlea Road,
Connewarre



While loose compost has been available to buy by weight at selected garden supply stores, this is the first time the City’s compost will be sold in a convenient bagged product.



Produced at the City’s Anakie Organics Processing Facility, the nutrient-rich compost has been used in parks and gardens across Greater Geelong, including the new Rippleside Inclusive Playspace, Geelong Botanic Gardens and the Geelong West Community Garden.
