February Harvest & Post-Sale Compost

Aloha Compost Club Members and Guests,

We had a nearly twice our usual amount of compost and vermicompost available for the January Compost Sale and we sold most of it that day, hitting a new record!  Thanks to all who spread the word and who came to stock up.  

There’s a couple of cubic yards of compost left, however, and maybe 30 pounds of vermicast.  If you missed the Sale, need more, or know of anyone who missed the Sale, please come by!  Please alert your network! We need to clear out all our current inventory ASAP because….  Here we go again!

The FEBRUARY COMPOST HARVEST will be held this Saturday, February 15th, starting promptly at 10:30 am at Kainalu Elementary School in Kailua.  We have just one pile to harvest, so we should be able to knock it out quickly.

I’m planning to be there from 10am to 2pm, so come to harvest and/or come to buy.

Enter the back gate off Kainalu Drive – you’ll see a sign.  We’ll open up at 10:00 am.

To become a Compost Club member, all you have to do is spend one hour volunteering at any 3rd-Saturday harvest plus purchase $20 worth of compost (two 5-gallon buckets), which you can carry away with you that day or pre-pay for a later pick-up.  You’ll be included on the e-mail blast for future scheduled harvests and other events.

The primary benefit of Compost Club membership is the privilege to purchase compost at $10 per bucketful at any monthly harvest – rather than wait for the public sales in January and June – whether you volunteer that day or not.

In addition, for every hour you volunteer at a harvest you earn a point, and three points get you a bucket of compost for FREE.

The third great benefit is the fun and camaraderie at every harvest – it’s easy and satisfying!

Suggested attire: gardening clothes.  Closed-toe shoes are a must and do bring gloves if you have them.  We have plenty of small-sized gloves.

Mahalo!
