Turn waste into a nutrient rich organic material for your garden. 

Join Master Gardener Cindy Young to learn how compost provides valuable nutrients for your garden soil.  Compost also helps retain moisture, which saves water, suppresses weeds, prevents soil erosion, and loosens compacted soils for better drainage and water retention.  It is rewarding to know you are turning waste into a nutrient rich organic material for your garden. She will also explain how worms can rapidly break down kitchen waste to make worm compost, one of the best organic fertilizers possible.  Also covered will be the types of worms needed, how to harvest the compost and how to set up a worm bin.
