International Compost Awareness Week enriches minds and soil alike during the first full week of May each year. Unlike some observances, this important week remains a fixture in the calendar, providing an annual opportunity to educate and inspire individuals and communities about the benefits of composting.

Composting is not only a simple and effective way to reduce waste and enrich soil but also a powerful tool for combating climate change and promoting sustainable living. International Compost Awareness Week celebrates the transformative power of composting and encourages everyone to join the composting revolution.

To dig deeper into International Compost Awareness Week, here are some content ideas for your social media and digital channels:

  • Share educational resources, guides, and tutorials on composting basics, including how to start a compost pile, what materials to compost, and troubleshooting common composting challenges.
  • Showcase success stories and testimonials from composting enthusiasts, community gardens, and organisations that have embraced composting as a sustainable practice.
  • Organise virtual workshops, demonstrations, or tours of composting facilities, providing participants with practical tips and hands-on experience in composting techniques.
  • Collaborate with local governments, environmental organisations, and composting advocates to promote composting initiatives, such as compost giveaways, community composting programs, or composting education campaigns.
  • Share inspiring examples of how composting can benefit the environment, such as reducing greenhouse gas emissions, conserving water, and improving soil health and fertility.
  • Encourage followers to share their own composting experiences, tips, and tricks, and foster a sense of community and camaraderie among composting enthusiasts using dedicated hashtags.
