May 2nd-8th is International Compost Awareness Week

Did you know that you could turn your fruit and veggie scraps into a nutrient-dense, eco-friendly fertilizer right in your backyard? Backyard composting is a simple and affordable way to fight climate change while reducing your garbage and restoring your soil. Help your lawn, garden, and houseplants thrive with your homemade food scrap compost.

In this live virtual program, you’ll be guided by home-composting expert and SCARCE director Kay McKeen, who has been composting for over 45 years. Learn the do’s and don’ts, how to set up your bin and tips for troubleshooting.
