Editor,
A round of applause is due Liz Avila with the Public Works Department for organizing a successful compost giveaway last Saturday, May 10, in the ACT V parking lot. Arriving at 8 a.m. with my gloves and shovel, I joined in with 20+ locals in scooping up rich, nutritious compost into my six sand bags and got a recyclable tote to boot. There was ample supply, as I told many neighbors who arrived even at noon towards the end of the event, yet were still welcomed to scoop and carry as long as the pile lasted. The sponsors were helpful and enthusiastic; hundreds of Lagunans participated. My garden and I thank you for a wonderfully successful community sponsored event!
