We are thrilled that we have been approved by the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food to operate our composting facility here in Littleton in accordance with Part 4 of the European Communities Regulations of 2008.
This license enables us to sell our very affordable high-end organic compost to the market. This compost is suitable for horticulture, agriculture, domestic gardens and sports fields.
Please see below feature from The Tipperary Star for more information. If you have any queries in relation to our compost please contact us on 0504 33721 and we will be happy to help.
