Sorry to be the passer on of bad news but some very sad news has come to me.Louise Tinney has passed away suddenly.

Has anyone got an hour or so to open the bin and spread some of the lovely compost onto the garden beds at the apple tree. (You’re also welcome to use in your own garden if you like)

Pic shown of the material from last time it was emptied.

If you live close to the Apple Tree, its the perfect time to pitch in.

ShareWaste or The Compost Depot - we need some assistance with these bins ongoing. if you could spread amongst your networks that would be great. thanks.
