All Green is open and so is gardening! Read about our Christmas Trading Hours here.
Organic compost feeds and enriches your soil, adding nutrients that help plants establish stronger roots and grow healthier. It improves how soil holds moisture and helps loosen heavy or compacted ground, which we often find in Melbourne gardens.
Whether you’re preparing new garden beds or boosting a veggie patch, our compost is made on site at our nursery and South Werribee location, delivering consistent nutrient levels and reliable performance in local growing conditions.

Our compost is produced on site using a mix of recycled green waste, composted manures, and organic materials, processed at our Hoppers Crossing nursery and South Werribee site. Each blend is developed to deliver consistent nutrient levels and reliable results across Melbourne soil conditions. We also produce our soil on-site, making it easy to pair compost with the right base for your garden.
Different compost types suit different garden uses. Organic Soil Booster (Revive) is a versatile, all-round option for improving soil and supporting plant growth across garden beds and general planting. Mushroom Compost is richer and more moisture-retentive, making it well-suited to vegetable gardens and areas that benefit from added organic matter.

Compost improves soil by adding organic matter and nutrients that support healthy plant growth.
It helps break up heavy clay soils, improves drainage in compacted areas, and adds structure to sandy soils, allowing them to hold moisture and nutrients more effectively. This is especially useful in Melbourne gardens, where soil conditions can vary widely.
For best results, dig compost through your existing soil or use it alongside one of our quality soil blends.
How you use compost depends on what you’re planting and the condition of your soil.
For new garden beds, start by loosening the existing ground, then mix compost through the top layer before adding your chosen soil blend. This helps create a nutrient-rich base for planting.
For veggie patches, work compost through the soil before planting to give vegetables and herbs a richer, more productive growing environment.
For established gardens, spread compost over the surface and lightly work it in around existing plants. Then, apply mulch over the top to help hold moisture and protect the soil underneath.
If you’re not sure how much to use or which soil blend to pair it with, our team can help point you in the right direction.
The amount of compost you need depends on how you’re using it and the size of your area.
As a general guide, compost is applied at around 25–50mm depth when improving soil. This is enough to add nutrients and organic matter without overwhelming the existing soil.
For example, a 10m² garden bed will typically need around 0.25–0.5m³ of compost, depending on how much improvement is needed.
If you’re mixing it through existing soil, you may use slightly less. For poorer or more compacted soil, a thicker layer can help achieve better results.
Yes, making your own compost is a great way to make use of your kitchen scraps and garden waste. A good compost mix usually includes a balance of “green” materials, such as food scraps and grass clippings, and “brown” materials, such as cardboard and dry leaves.
It does take time and the right conditions to break down properly, but it can be a rewarding way to build up your soil naturally. If you’d like a step-by-step guide, you can read more here:
