After giving up on queueing for compost at the Warehouse, I suddenly remembered we had a local supplier in Shannon. So a quick search on Neighbourly tracked him down.

The supplier's name is Gareth Parlato. A couple of text messages later and the product was delivered the same day. Unlike the Warehouse compost which usually stinks to high heaven and is not totally composted, this product is gold. It is beautiful to work with, has no smell, and the texture is beyond compare. You could easily use it for seed raising. The bags are much heavier and are 40L. If you are a keen gardener like me, check him out. You will be impressed! I was.
