Soilco

11/05/2026

To celebrate International Compost Awareness Week, on Saturday SOILCO opened the gates to our Kembla Grange Compost Manufacturing Facility. Following the success of last year’s tours, we welcomed residents from the City of Wollongong for a behind-the-scenes look at how we make compost.

From food scraps to finished product, visitors were taken through each stage of the process - seeing firsthand how organics are transformed into nutrient-rich compost. Attendees were also gifted a bag of compost for use in their home gardens.

It was a great way to bring this year’s theme to life: Better Soil, Better Life, Better Future. Because our impact doesn’t stop at the kerb. Our actions come full circle, regenerating our soils, our gardens, and our communities.

Soil is life. And we’re running out of it.

International Compost Awareness Week is a reminder that small actions add up.This week, take one small step: use your caddy, start a compost pile, or spread the word about the benefits of using your FOGO bin.

At SOILCO, we see the life-giving potential that soil holds. Join us in helping others see its potential too.

It’s International Compost Awareness Week 2026, and this year’s theme says it all: Better Soil, Better Life, Better Future.

Mandarin peels, coffee grounds, vegetable scraps - they’re not waste, they’re a valuable resource. Diverting organics from landfill helps reduce emissions and return nutrients to our soils - building the foundation for a better future.

So, what’s going in your caddy today?

We Give Life to Soil - One Winning Pumpkin at a Time 🎃

The Tumut Show has wrapped up, and horticultural scientist and giant pumpkin grower Mark Peacock has done it again - taking out first place with a 133.5kg pumpkin!

Backing up his 2025 win with another in 2026, Mark’s scale-tipping vegetable was supported once again by our Tomato & Veg Mix. Mark says our product’s consistency and performance have helped him grow pumpkins of truly giant proportions.

Please join us in congratulating Mark on his well-deserved win. We love it when our products get put to the ultimate test!
