Composting with Garden Debris and with Worm Bins

Date: Thursday, August 15th  
Time: 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm
Location: Sandy Library Community Room

Master Recycler, Kris LaMar will present on how composting with garden debris is easy and cheap, and you will have a strong and healthy garden when you add compost. Use compost to provide nutrients, to reduce your need for fertilizer and to improve the quality of clay or sandy soil. It also can be used as a mulch to control weeds and save water.

A worm bin can eliminate most of your food waste and at the same time provide soil amendments and fertilizer. Redworms are recyclers that transform kitchen waste to humus-rich soil conditioner in just a few months. To make them work for you, you need only supply them with a home, furnished with bedding and food.

This program is offered in partnership with the Master Recycler Program.
