WHRM celebrates International Compost Awareness Week!
Attention West Hants residents! We are excited to announce that Council has declared the first full week of May, this year and every year following, as “International Compost Awareness Week”!
This global education initiative celebrates the many benefits of composting, including reducing waste, improving soil health, and mitigating climate change.
This year's theme, "For Healthier Soil, Healthier Food...Compost," highlights the importance of compost as a sustainable source of fertilizer. Through composting, we can turn organic waste into a valuable resource that enriches the soil, promotes biodiversity, and supports the growth of healthy food.
