Kentucky Black Gold Compost We have been making compost here at Triple J Farm for 10 years now, but only in the past 5 years we began selling it to the public! Correctly made compost will have NO SMELL!!! The concept we use is stacking rows of unusable products such as vegetables, horse & cattle bedding and landscape clippings. These items are then turned on a regular basis, which allows for a carbon to break down the matter. As the heat rises in the rows, unwanted seeds, like weed seeds will die, leaving the good nutrition aspect to come through.
We sell our Compost in several ways at the farm and at the markets! Large Bags - $7.00 Small Bags - $5.00 Bulk Compost - 1 yard buckets - $20.00 Delivery also Available!! Please contact Stewart at 502-316-4473 for more information or questions!
