The members, comprising of senior folks, adult, youth and teenagers were geared up for the job of the day – sieving, packing, weighing and stacking of more than a ton of compost contributed by a fellow member, Ezekiel Kunti. Together and within a two hour period, they had successfully packed 250 bags of five kilogram of compost to be sold at RM10 each.
They will pack another 250 bags of compost on 7th August 2010. The compost, brought down from a nearby oil palm plantation is organic, fertile and suitable for all types of plants. It is highly recommended for garden plants and vegetables. The compost must be mixed with ordinary soil in the ratio of 4:6
After the ‘gotong royong’, they adjourned to a fellowship, a feast of durians, rambutans and other local fruits. The activity is an excellent platform to enhance relationship, a very much needed component in community building.
