Spa Hills Compost

Spa Hills Compost We collect food waste and other organic material from businesses and Stratas in the following Okanag

At Spa Hill Farms our mission is to create the final link in the chain to a full circle green solution for our local economy and our local community. We do this by collecting food waste that would otherwise go to a landfill and we make chemical-free fertilizer for our 300 acre farm where we grow wheat to feed to our cows and chickens. This compost helps our soil to retain water, which is very impo

rtant in this dry area. This also cuts down on the cost of buying non-organic fertilizer and soil amendments while helping companies lower their greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs). Spa Hills is proud to be a part of the sustainable movement to improve our environment and soil in the Okanagan and Shuswap regions, especially since 2015 was named the Year of Soils by the United Nations.

Hello everyone, as a company who values transparency and community, we have decided to open our doors for the Silver Creek residents to come tour our facility to allow people to see for themselves the good that we are doing for the planet. Composting is one step closer to reducing the ramifications of climate change and increases the lifespan of our landfills. This natural process allows for individuals to help their communities by reducing the effects of climate change. We would love to show our community this process and how we turn a waste product into something valuable to give back to the environment, a full green waste solution.

Our doors will be open from October 1st - 4th, from 12:00pm - 4:30pm, to show our community what exactly we do here at Spa Hills Farm. We ask for individual who come, to please leave a donation, where all the proceeds will go to the Silver Creek Community Hall. What we do here means so much to so many people, including our workers who have dedicated their support to the value of our process. We would love to be able to show the Silver Creek Community this wonderful science. While you’re here, we are happy to give compost to those who may want to try it out for themselves, your flowerbeds will never be brighter!

Now composting for a better world: Mission Hill Winery in West Kelowna!

It's Compost Awareness Week! 🌱🎉

Composting is one of the most important individual and collective actions humanity can take to rebuild our soils, grow more nutritious food, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. ⁣

“The Compost Story”, is one of our short films starring Rosario Dawson, Paul Blackthorne, Adrian Grenier, Amy Smart, and Kendrick Sampson that gives audiences the story of compost, likening it to a “probiotic for soil” - a means to jumpstart the carbon sequestration process, and bring back life to degraded land around the world!⁣

Find out what would happen if we diverted the 60+ billion pounds of mineral-rich food materials that go to landfills each year and turned them into by watching https://kisstheground.com/playmedia/the-compost-story/ to learn more!
