🤯
Way to go Carter's Compost (!) so glad to partner with you - we helped to divert 5,000 pounds of food scraps along with farm grown biomass at Lightwell Lavender in 2024!

It is the official first day of winter! We extended the drop-off season at Lightwell Lavender 💜 this year, but with the arrival of the snow ❄️ our season has come to a close. THANK YOU to everyone dropping off at this beautiful farm - we processed over 5,000 pounds of food scraps on the farm this year, in addition to all the farm "waste" as well! 👏 Can't wait to harvest some amazing compost next year 🌱
