Composting Workshop
Composting is just another form of recycling. When you compost, you're tapping into the natural nutrient cycle. In nature, organic waste from plants and animals is recycled by decomposition. Composting is controlling that decomposition to speed it up and produce a stable and odorless material for plants to use.
Learn different forms of composting including Vermicomposting and the best way to compost your kitchen scraps. Garden staff hold this monthly donation based backyard composting workshop.

You’ll find an amazing selection of herbs and veggies to choose from, as well as edible flowers, pollinator plants, and even gardening supplies that will help maximize your harvest all year round..
