Central Florida Green Guide

Need compost but don’t have space to do it yourself? Don’t want to buy it?
Since 1992, yard waste has been collected from Orange County homes and composted. The compost is resembles peat moss, is free of weed seeds and plant pests, and contains some plant nutrients. (PH is around 8.0, so it is alkaline and should not be used with plants needing acidic soil.)

Compost is offered FREE on a first come, first serve basis. Just call ahead to see if they have any available at the pick up locations below. Then head out with your containers, bags, and shovels!
