Henderson County is excited to offer our Spring Compost Bin Sale again this year! The sale will run from April 1st to May 31st, bins must be preordered through this site and will be available for pick up at the Convenience Center on Friday, June 21st and Saturday, June 22nd.Discounted backyard compost bins are available for residents of Henderson County, limited to 1 bin per household. The Earth Machine compost bin retails around $100, residents will receive the bins at the discounted, bulk rate of $54.95. As a bonus, the first 150 bins purchased will receive a free kitchen food scrap collection pail and educational guide.
Compost improves soil health, protects the climate and almost anyone can do it! When mixed with soil, compost increases microbial activity, suppresses plan diseases, increases water retention and supplies essential nutrients for plants. Additionally, when food scraps get buried in a landfill, they contribute to landfill methane emissions, a powerful greenhouse gas.
Composting is an easy way to recycle your food scraps and yard waste. I’m excited to provide additional compost resources for the community, including easy to assemble compost bins!
