• Free compost from Yankton Landfill grass clippings is
available for your use. Compost adds organic matter and
nutrients to the soil. Natural process for making compost
kills most weed seeds. Some are concerned that chemicals
may have been applied to lawn clippings disposed at the
landfill. They apply the compost after a holding period, but
one’s own discretion is advised. The City of Yankton uses
this same compost in public space plant projects. Yankton
Park & Recreation staff uses a mixture of about 25% compost with topsoil for re-seeding turf, flower planters, and
planting trees. Adding more than 25% compost to topsoil is
not recommended, as plants need benefits of soil too. Bring
your own bucket and shovel because you load compost
yourself. Gate attendant will show you where to drive to get
the compost. Enjoy compost benefits over time. Yankton

you don’t have a flowerbed or the right soil or location. Or
maybe you want to see the rose up close in a sunny location on your deck. Find a compact and disease resistant variety. As you choose your planter, recall that small containers dry out more quickly in the heat of summer. Water the
