Indoor Composting Class This Saturday!

We are so excited to host Emily Fitzgerald from Microbial Earth Farms this Saturday at 10:30am to talk to us about a couple alternative approaches to composting - both of which can be done indoors!

The focus of the talk will be on Bokashi Composting, a method that uses microbes to ferment your food scraps in a bucket in your house, providing you with both a nutrient tea to use as a liquid fertilizer and organic matter that you can then bury directly in the ground. Unlike standard backyard composting, this method also allows you to compost meat and dairy!

Emily will also talk to us about vermicomposting a.k.a using worms to make compost for us! Feel free to bring any composting questions you may have. Emily is a wealth of knowledge.
