Did you know that Saffron (and Godivan and Riverton) are actively supporting school gardens all over the Los Angeles area by donating finished organic compost?
My three horses produce a combined 150 lbs A DAY of quality manure. I compost every last bit of it, using three O2Compost systems and, once a month, Bob Papp comes by to haul off the finished, ultra high quality, organic compost. Bob then takes the compost around to dozens of schools in the Los Angeles area for their gardens, which produce pounds and pounds of produce! That's about 1.5 tons of finished compost, folks. Per month! Manure that is not only NOT going to landfill but is actually helping our communities. Oh yeah.
Many thanks to Bob for his endless energy and wonderful nature. Bob does all of this out of the goodness and generosity of his heart and a lifelong passion for gardening and our future gardeners.
And a big Thank You to Warren for building my compost bins and helping out with the back breaking work of loading the finished compost, garbage can full by can full, every month, rain or shine.
