[GreenYes] Re: Where do residents get compost bins if their municipality does not subsidize them?



Since I cannot remember ever actually seeing a compost bin for sale at
a store, I would venture to guess that folks who do not have access to
subsidized composting bins are either ordering them online (i.e.
www.composters.com), from catalogs (i.e. realgoods.com) or building
their own.
