A Quick Tip for Excess Fruits & Veg this Fall

This is the time of year when fallen leaves, fruit, branches and other yard waste piles up. While the green organics carts are great for disposing of these items, did you know there are other great options for getting rid of your excess fruits and veggies from the garden?

The Alberni Valley Gleaning Project will share excess garden harvest across the Alberni Valley.

If that doesn’t work for you though, and you’re choosing to compost excess food items such as fruit, please make sure the cart is no more than half full. There have been challenges with the carts being too heavy for even automated arms to lift.
