Saturday compost sale canceled after city sells out on Friday

The city of Lawrence has canceled its spring compost sale for Saturday after a large crowd snapped up all of the city’s compost supply on Friday.

The city loaded more than 600 trucks and trailers with compost on Friday as part of its twice-annual sale that provides the gardening material for $10 per pick up load.

The city plans to conduct another sale of compost, which is made from broken-down leaves and grass clippings collected through the city’s yard waste program, in the fall.
