Join us for this popular interactive hands-on workshop where you’ll learn how to plan, build, and maintain a compost heap. 

Organic nursery operator Rex Hunt will demonstrate how you can make your own compost in a short period of time. He takes a science-based approach and will explain the difference between a hot compost (short period) and a cold compost (longer period). You will get to see one-year-old compost, one-week-old compost, and will make a compost pile on the day, with a handout to take away. Come with your questions and any problems you may have experienced.
