Compost with Confidence Series: #3 “Is it done? Compost uses.”

Saturday, August 27, 12:30-1:30pm

@ the compost demonstration site at the Ithaca Community Gardens (Carpenter Circle, off 3rd St Ext near the Ithaca Farmers Market) map

 

Master Composter volunteers provide information and demonstrations on how to set up and manage a successful compost system in this FREE 5-part series held the last Saturday of the month from June through October. Each class covers compost basics and a topic of the month. The August class will focus on how to tell when compost is finished, and how to use it. Upcoming topics: 9/24: “Indoor composting”; 10/29: “Winter Composting.”

 

Not sure what type of compost bin you want to use?  Visit our new compost demonstration site at the Ithaca Community gardens, where you can see 8 different compost systems in action, including an Earth Machine, welded wire, pallet bin, tumbler and 3-bin unit.
