New Compost Bays

Plot 207 near the bay tree is struggling to compete with the bay trees. It is very difficult to grow anything in the plots.
We decided to turn this plot into our new communal compost area. The north side will be the entrance and the other three sides will be blocked off.

When using the new compost area, please put in green waste only and take the other rubbish home.
We are not going to have multiple bays but one big heap. Please try to put your green waste in the existing big heap and not blocking the entrance.
