The city sells the compost to the soil providers for $15.00 per ton. They sell it to the public for $40.00 per cubic yard. I am not sure what a ton equates to in cubic yards.
The other choice is to use basic fertilizer chemicals.NPK.
So it is a case of take your choice.

Durgan a ton of compost is about 1 yard.
You are paying over twice as much as the soil providers.
Therefore you are subsidizing the business by taking on their burden of cost.
