About this event

Do YOU want to be a planet protector? Join our Composting series to discover the dirt on turning scraps into soil, explore the whole cycle of decay and regrowth, and unlock the secrets of nature’s recycling system. Get ready for hands-on lessons that will change how you see your trash! With NYC now requiring all residents to separate food waste using brown bins, programs and classes like these serve as an essential resource to make you help you navigate through composting basics! In this class we will be sifting and preparing finished compost, and discussing the importance of curing, sifting, and processing for use. Take home fresh compost!
