This compost is supplied by the city. It was picked up in May 2010, one half yard per day. It was too late to apply in the Spring, so I stored it until Fall and am applying a layer to the garden bed. It is vegetative compost from tree cuttings, and is superb quality. The quantity is about four cubic yards or about 28 wheelbarrows full. This is the only fertilizer that I use. The compost layer will be rototilled into the underlying soil in the Spring. This is annual project.
