Saturday, March 28: National Compost Day
On National Compost Day, the municipality of Uithoorn will distribute a free bag of compost to its residents.
With this compost action, the municipality of Uithoorn wishes to thank all residents for separating organic waste (GFT: vegetable, fruit, and garden waste). Processing GFT into compost is cheaper than incineration, reduces air pollution, and conserves resources. The cleaner the GFT, the better the compost. So keep separating your waste properly at home!
The spring is approaching! Time to get back outside and work in the garden or on the balcony. Treat your plants and flowers to some compost. Your efforts will be visible in your own garden or balcony. Come by on Saturday, March 28, to the municipal yard and pick up a free bag of compost.
As a surprise, you will receive growth paper with flower seeds embedded in it. Plant it in the compost, water it, and with a little patience… your good deed will bloom. Supplies are limited, so be quick!
