Are you unsure what to do with your kitchen, garden, and yard scraps? Would you like natural, home-made compost for your lawns and gardens in the spring? Then, you can expand your recycling efforts to include kitchen scraps and yard debris by signing up for a Pennsylvania Resources Council (PRC) Backyard Composting Workshop to turn your yard waste and food scraps into a valuable resource for your garden.

PRC Workshops thoroughly cover the importance and benefits of composting, the process, setting up a compost pile, proper maintenance, and ways of using finished compost. Participants will receive a FreeGarden EARTH compost bin with attendance. This bin is an ideal bin for urban and suburban areas and has an 82-gallon capacity.

Cost: $70 single/ $75 household and includes one compost bin.
