The location for the event is Conejo Creek Park South (23 Freeway at Janss Road exit). Hours are from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Agromin will operate an onsite grinder that will process large branches and other green waste. The resulting material will be trucked to one of Agromin's Ventura County processing sites where it will be cleaned and composted and eventually turned into soil products for backyard use. These soil products are available to consumers in the Conejo Valley at Carlson Building Materials (1432 Thousand Oaks Blvd., Thousand Oaks). "Recycling green waste helps Thousand Oaks become a more sustainable community," says Bill Camarillo, Agromin's CEO. "Every pound of green waste we can keep out of landfills and reuse in the form of compost here in the city enables Thousand Oaks and its residents to complete the recycling loop." Residents must unload their own materials during clean up day. Proof of residency is required. For information on what to bring to the clean-up day, call 805-449-2468. For information about green waste recycling, visit www.agromin.com. # # # Agromin, based in Oxnard, Calif., is the green materials recycler for over 50 communities throughout Southern California. Every year, the company collects over 300,000 tons of green material (leaves, grass clippings and wood). It then cleans, processes and composts the material into soil products. The products are returned to the earth when used by farmers, landscapers and consumers--thus closing the "recycling loop." Agromin compost is listed by the non-profit Organic Materials Review Institute (OMRI) so it is used in certified organic production or food processing in accordance to the USDA National Organic Program standards. Agromin soil products are also approved for by the U.S. Composting Council, which recently recognized Agromin as the "Composter of the Year." Agromin products are sold in bulk and in bags at locations in Ventura, Santa Barbara, Orange and Los Angeles Counties. Products are also available online at www.agromin.com. End
