Home composting is a great way to manage food scraps like fruit and vegetable peels, coffee grounds, stale bread, and other scraps or spoiled foods so they don’t go to waste! This free workshop by Tanesia White, Recycling Educator is designed for new/beginner composters looking to get started. The class will introduce the environmental and horticultural benefits of composting and the basic principles of how to do it correctly. Then, participants will learn about the various compost bin options and the pros and cons of each composting system. Registration is required!
Tanesia will be speaking virtually, but you can choose to attend the session either online or in person at the Wallkill Public Library. When signing up for this program, please indicate your preference.
