Compost Bin

Compost Bin and Pail Sale 

For Backyard Composting

As part of the annual St. Croix County tree sale, we offer compost bins and collection pails to support sustainable living by recycling organic waste into nutrient-rich compost. 

Why compost? Composting reduces the need for pesticides and synthetic fertilizers. Because compost enriches soil and promotes healthy plant growth, plants grown in compost-rich soil tend to be more resilient to diseases, pests, and fungi. 

  • 25-30% of American household waste is compostable food scraps
  • Prevent methane pollution, a major factor in global warming
  • Save resources, landfill space, and return valuable organic material to the earth
  • Mix into your garden or flower beds to improve plant growth or over your lawn and embankments to help reduce erosion
