Description:
This accessible, informal, and hands-on composting session shows how anyone can compost; no matter their space, setup, or resources. Perfect for beginners or compost-curious folks, this workshop demystifies the process and gets your hands in the mix, literally. *Multiple dates available, pending interest - get in touch

We’ll handle real compost materials and walk through how to build your pile using what’s already around you - from yard waste to kitchen scraps to scavenged browns. You’ll learn how to scrounge, layer, troubleshoot, and trust your senses. We keep it supportive, low-pressure, and full of real-life tips (plus plenty of dirt and laughter).

Expect an open Q&A, approachable guidance, and a judgment-free space to ask anything—there are no “stupid” compost questions here.

What you’ll leave with:

• The basics of composting at any scale

• Ideas for finding free local materials

• A better understanding of ratios (without worry or math anxiety)

• Dirt under your nails and a smile on your face, hopefully!
