The City of Lenoir will hold a leaf compost giveaway/sale this Saturday, April 29, 2023, from 8:00 am to 3:00 pm.
The compost is free to the public if they shovel and load it themselves. The compost is $5.00 a scoop, if City staff loads it. It's a really big scoop.
The compost center is located at 825 Fairview Drive at the old sewer treatment plant behind Kick's radio station. The compost is made of leaves that the City Public Works collects from October to January each year. The leaves sit and compost for at least one year before being given away, or sold to residents.
If the City has to cancel or postpone this event for any reason, staff will post a cancellation notice on the City website.

The City of Lenoir Compost site is located at 825 Fairview Drive. The site is highlighted by the white dashed line above. The drive path to the site is shown by the dashed green line.
