Market Day with Pure Maiden Farm's Spring Festival

A lovely day at the Pure Maiden Farm Spring Festival today. Was awesome to see their beautiful flowers grown with the help of Elmore Compost. We've been working together for over 6 years now and love seeing their business thrive.

A great reminder to support & shop local, especially when it comes to flowers and organic produce. Choose locally grown, not flown!

Also check out our new wheelie bins of compost and reach out if you'd like us to feature at your next market, field day or festival.
