It was our first Monday evening task of 2025 and we got off to a bang being back at Aldemoor Community Farm with Richard.

Richard always has something new and interesting for us to try and tonight was no different. We were tasked with helping sift and break up compost which was ready to be sorted and bagged to help compost this years plants.

Chris was head of the production line filling all the trays with compost to be sorted. We then had to work through and breakup the compost sorting weeds and wood and BONES(!) into one tray, plastic into another and stones into another.

Once the consistency was about right we then had to use the large sieve machine which was very satisfying! Leszek and Serena expertly handled removing the sieve so we could then start placing the compost into bags.

It was a fun, therapeutic session and we created five bags of compost which we are told Pam the community outreach lady will be very grateful for!

We look forward to returning and helping Richars again soon
