Decomposition, the natural decay of organic matter has been taking place on Earth for millions of years, and composting, is simply a human-made process to speed up decomposition - nature’s way of recycling nutrients. By bringing together the right ingredients, in the right amounts, you too can make nutrient-rich compost in your own backyard and enjoy the many benefits of composting, such as fertile soil, healthier plants, higher crop yields, lowered carbon emissions etc... This presentation provides a 60-minute overview of the basic art and science of backyard composting. Ages 16+ Registration requested.
