Intro to Composting

Thanks to Master Composter Justin van Oeveren (and generous volunteer!) we were able to offer 2 workshops this spring to community members to learn how to create your own rich & nourishing compost!

Participants had the chance to:

Learn how to compost – starting from square one.
Discover how composting helps vegetables grow bigger and better.
Learn what CAN & can NOT be composted
Discuss the best compost style for different needs
Learn how to manage compost to help things break down as fast as possible.
