Compost Bins (cost of)

toddler · **Posted: 19-03-2009 , 10:16 PM** #1

Hi,
Went to the amenity site today to buy a compost bin, but had a change of mind when I was told they were 40 euro each and I knew the local farmers co-op sold them for less. Thought the councils were supposed to be encouraging the green movement!
Anyone else found the same thing?

[ agree with you, they should be subsidised at least. I guess though that we are meant to put compost material in the brown bin. I would really love to make my own compost but the price of the bins are a little high for me..
