The first of two monthly City to Soil prizes has been presented to Eastgrove’s Heather Slater.
Mrs Slater was randomly selected to receive the prize – a fruit and vegetable basket - after her family correctly collected their food waste in biobags and placed it in their green waste bins.
When collecting the basket, Mrs Slater praised the new City to Soil initiative.
"It’s a really good idea, especially if it’s going to help farmers," Mrs Slater said.
"It was very easy to use and there was no smell, which was a bit surprising."
Two monthly prizes will continue to be presented throughout the Eastgrove test-run of City to Soil. When the collections are rolled out in Goulburn and Marulan later this year, monthly prizes will also be on offer.
