Martin's Farm Compost and Mulch

The composting process takes about three months to transform the leaves, manures, grass, recycled food wastes, cardboard and paper into rich, dark compost (Black Gold). The compost is matured for another month or so, then screened and stockpiled, or sold.

The 'screening process' screens out materials that did not break down enough; foreign material, and wood chips. Screening down to 3/8 of an inch, the resulting compost is light, fluffy, and easy to handle. This relatively quick three to four month process results in capturing more of the nitrogen and other naturally occurring nutrients, as well as a high percentage of organic matter which help grow healthy and happy plants in our customers' gardens.
