How much compost can I get? If I bring a small pick up?

Hi there, our limit is five 5-gallon buckets per household per gardening season. Thank you for asking.
Pablo
hello there. Any idea, if and when this free compost program will return?

Hi Pablo,
We are working on setting this up for 2026, most likely starting in spring (March or April – but sooner if logistics work out!).
We’ll put up a new blog post when we have a firm date for restarting. In the meantime, Zero Waste Sonoma has compost hubs in Cotati and Santa Rosa, etc. Locations are listed at https://zerowastesonoma.gov/resources/compost-giveaways

Hi there,
Is there a current (May 2026) update about Bounty Farms’ free compost program?
Ive got some hungry planter boxes that would love to grow vegetables/flowers inyour black gold.
