Home Composting: Turning Your Spoils to Soil

Why should we compost our yard waste and kitchen scraps at home? Because it is easy, produces a free soil enhancer, and helps our environment by reducing the amount of trash we send to landfills and incinerators each day. This program teaches you:
- what makes compost happen
- what items you should and shouldn't compost
- about a variety of compost bins
- how to build your own compost bin
- the "recipe" for great compost
- how to use your finished compost
- how to use yard waste as mulch
