It's gardening season and one thing you will need to have a successful garden is good soil.
You don't have to go broke buying it; you can make your own by composting.
Cities across the valley are making it affordable.
I got my compost bin through the City of Phoenix for $5.
All I had to do was call and schedule a time to pick up my container. I did have to show proof of residency.
