Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 13/06/2009 (5957 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
For those of you itching to give composting a try (or just upgrade your system), a reminder that today is the city’s big compost bin sale, where you can get a $100 bin for $30. The sale also includes rain barrels, compost turners and kitchen scrap pails at pretty reasonable prices.
Bins are on sale at the following places:
– St. James Civic Centre (2055 Ness Avenue at Woodlawn St.)
– St. Vital Centennial Arena (580 St. Anne’s Road at Meadowood Drive)
– Kildonan Place Shopping Centre (1555 Regent Avenue West – south parking lot)
Staff with Resource Conservation Manitoba (RCM) will be on-hand to answer questions. But if you already compost at home or just need a brush-up, RCM is also hosting composting workshops around the province this month — register here.
You can also see tons of fact sheets on their website, or just call the toll-free compost infoline at 924-3777 or 1-866-394-8880 with any questions.
