The City of Regina is offering free compost to residents this weekend, while supplies last. The initiative aims to promote sustainable gardening and waste reduction in the community.
Residents can pick up compost at designated locations across the city. The compost is made from organic waste collected through the city's green cart program, turning waste into a valuable resource for gardens and lawns.
Event Details
The free compost giveaway will take place on Saturday and Sunday, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., or until supplies run out. Participants are asked to bring their own containers and shovels. The city recommends arriving early to ensure availability.
Benefits of Composting
Composting enriches soil, reduces the need for chemical fertilizers, and helps retain moisture in gardens. By using compost, residents can improve plant health and contribute to environmental sustainability.
This event is part of the city's broader efforts to encourage eco-friendly practices and reduce landfill waste. For more information, residents can visit the city's website or contact the waste management department.
