This workshop will teach you how to set up a compost area to turn your kitchen and garden waste into healthy soil. Composting keeps valuable resources out of landfills, where they contribute to greenhouse gases. Instead, they can be used in home gardens and farms to build and maintain healthy soil, reducing the need for climate-damaging chemical fertilizers that find their way into streams and rivers. The workshop will cover different composting methods, from a simple on-the-ground compost area to a rotating drum device. It will include what material to compost and what to avoid. This workshop is for everyone, including families (children and adults) and both beginners and experienced gardeners. We will be starting a composting area on the grounds of the church, and participants will assist in setting this up and starting the composting process on the site. Questions?
