Introduction
Somerset’s garden waste is composted in the county and turned into Revive soil conditioner by our contractor Biffa.
Biffa produces two grades (0 to 15mm and 0 to 30mm) that are perfect for commercial and domestic use and meet the highest quality standards.
You can buy and collect 40-litre bags from all Somerset recycling sites; £4.50 each or three for £12.00. Payment is accepted on Visa and MasterCard credit and debit cards, Visa Electron and Diners Club, including contactless cards. There is no delivery service for 40-litre bags.
The benefits of using Revive green waste compost in your garden include:
- Provides a good source of natural and valuable plant nutrients and trace elements; plus, a slight liming effect due to its alkaline pH.
- Adds valuable organic matter and improves soil fertility
- Improves soil workability and improves soil tilth, reducing ploughing, cultivation and fuel costs particularly in clay soils
- Improved moisture retention in light soils and drainage in clay soils
- In mulching applications, reduces weed seed germination and also helps with weeding activities
- Increases productivity and yields
- Increases soil microbiology by adding important microbes
- Adds essential carbon to the soil profile
