Composting 101

Our Wellness Garden & local foods coordinator, Margie is at it again encouraging us to get outside & work in our gardens. Check out her latest upcoming workshop.

A Composting 101 Workshop will be held at the Flower Farm Friday May 4th. 

Please join us for a composting workshop presented by Kevin Marini with Placer & Nevada County University of California Cooperative Extension.

What will you learn in Composting 101? In this workshop, you will learn how to work with our foothill soils to increase their fertility, drainage and overall structure through the utilization of the best soil amendment on earth – compost!  The key to vigorous gardens is feeding the soil which in turn feeds the plant.  Come and explore the wonderful world of decomposition with the Worm Whisper!
