Stockpile update for 5/17/24-5/23/24

Topsoil is coming soon. We will make a post when it arrives! We delivered 4 more trailer loads of composted horse manure today to 4 locations!!!

We source all of our waste streams thoughtfully. We use Roundup free composted manure from Dave Henke’s place up at 11120 Birch Dr. He heats the manure up to 160 degrees for 3 weeks, turns it and makes sure that all horses have only Roundup free hay and straw. Everyone is welcome to go up there and grab as much as you want for free or he will fill up your truck for $100. Our mushroom substrate comes from The Happy Mushroom and has no chemicals or pesticides in it. The bagged leaves we accept has not been sprayed or have dog poo in it.

Our resources are available to everyone for free if you need it and by donation if you can. All donations are greatly appreciated and used to help Anchor Gardens put on workshops, events, and stockpiles to help us build food security one garden at a time.
