Kiwanis Club of Bellingham and Sehome High School will hold their annual mushroom compost sale at the school Saturday, April 16.

The popular sale from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the school parking lot, 2700 Bill McDonald Parkway, benefits Sehome programs and other local youth-centered nonprofit groups. Beneficiaries in 2016 include Junior Achievement, Boys & Girls Club of Whatcom County, and Animals as Natural Therapy.

The 40-pound bags of compost are sold for $5 each on a first-come, first-serve basis.

“This is a great value for gardeners and a way to help many youth in our community at the same time,” said Stephanie Morrell, Kiwanis marketing chair.
