Sustainable farming is a
continuous cycle. In order to improve the quality of the food we produce we must
continue to improve the quality of the soil that feeds our plants.
Here at The Dahlia Farm we rely
heavily on compost, manure, plant fiber, coffee chaff, restaurant waste and
other organic (carbon-structured) materials as betterments to our soil. In order
to grow our farm and feed our soil, we must continue to expand our compost
supply.
If you would like to be part of
our compost project, please drop us an email or give us a ring. We are looking
for household/kitchen waste, restaurant waste, animal waste, manure, shavings,
landscape waste, leaves, sawdust, grass clippings and anything similar. There
should be nothing that is not bio-degradable or that is chemical-treated. We are
interested in deliveries to our compost pile whether it is by the pale-full or
by the truck load (if you are a CSA shareholder feel free to drop off a weekly
bucket).
If you know a landscaper or
restaurant owner be sure to pass this on -- you may even save them money off
their dump cost!
