Free compost for Matariki

Auckland Council

Planting for Matariki?

Thanks to the Beautification Trust you can collect free compost to give you a head start on your garden this winter. The compost is made with your local food scraps and you'll need to order it online in advance.

Papakura families have composted 4470 tonnes of food scraps. This is like 525 rubbish trucks full of food scraps kept out of landfill.
