FREE compost giveaway is back

For those who are looking to spruce up their garden this spring, Cessnock City Council, in partnership with Solo Resource Recovery is hosting two FREE compost giveaways.  

The giveaways are planned for Tuesday 16 October at Log of Knowledge Park, Kurri Kurri and Wednesday 17 October at Lions Park, Branxton. Running on a first in, best dressed basis, both giveaways will kick off at 4pm and finish up when stock is gone.  

Residents of Cessnock, Maitland and Singleton are eligible for one free bag of compost per household, so ensure you bring along your driver’s licence, rates notice or utility bill as proof of address.  

Cessnock City Mayor, Councillor Bob Pynsent is encouraging locals to take advantage of this popular giveaway.  

“We’ve had such great feedback from residents about the quality of the compost at these giveaways. The best part is it’s made from the material collected in our garden organics bins and this is the perfect time of year to put it back in our gardens and complete the cycle!”
