Successful promotions in past years have included:
- Compost sales – many communities offered compost for sale with the days proceeds going to selected local charities
- Openings and tours of composting demonstration gardens as well as centralized composting facilities
- Tree planting ceremonies using compost to prepare the soil for planting
- The setting up of a “Grow A Row” garden, using compost to prepare the soil, with the fall harvest being donated to the local food bank
- Backyard composting training sessions, offered for residents as well as through school visits
- A “Compost Tea Party” where residents were invited to learn about composting including how to use compost and make Compost Tea?
- Talks by well-known gardening experts on gardening experts on gardening and the use of compost
