To gardeners, compost is considered “black gold” because of its many benefits in the garden. It is a great material for garden soil.Adding fertilizer to clay soils makes them easier to work and plant. In sandy soils, the addition of compost improves the water holding capacity of the soil. By adding organic matter to the soil, this can help improve plant growth and health.

A healthy garden starts with healthy soil. You don’t need to worry about applying miracle elixirs or wielding new-fangled tools. Adding compost to garden beds is the best — and easiest — thing you can do to produce a bumper crop of vegetables and bountiful bouquets of flowers.

How much fertilizer you need to apply and how often you should apply it varies, depending on the typical soil characteristics and whether you garden year-round.
As a general rule, plan on incorporating compost into your beds before each planting season.

When your planting season occurs and how many planting seasons you get each calendar year depends on geography.
Layer partially decomposed compost on empty beds in the fall, before the ground freezes, and let it decompose further through winter. All those lovely nutrients will be ready and waiting for your spring planting.
