New garden (shambles really) my lady wants lots of cheap compost and
peat
and recalls seeing offers in Supermarkets around this time of year.
BOGOFF,
3 for 2 etc.

Does anybody in this NG know of such offers currently in East Kent.
Margate
area specifically. I've yet to find any this year so maybe they have
gone
out of fashion.

TIA

Our Council have a wonderful composting facility and I feel sure that if
you
do a search, yours, or one nearby will also do one. This compost is
available at many outlets here on the Isle of Wight, or at the collection
points of garden waste as well. Already bagged it could even go on the
back
seat of the car with a few covers on the seats themselves ;-))

Great idea Mike. I'll get searching right now.

There's a big iron skip in our local well organised tip, full of free
compost. Last time I saw it was steaming like the clappers. I an now
preparing for the season and my greenhouse soil is four years since last
mixed, - so I'll go past there this afternoon and I'll drop in , - (to the
compound, not the skip), - and have a shuftie. I may even check with the
local friendly Park Chief.
I'll report back.
Doug.
