Help community gardeners build a greener, healthier, and more sustainable city as they recycle their garden trimmings into compost. Pitch in with chopping, mixing, sifting, and other compost bin maintenance tasks while learning hands-on the tips and techniques for setting up and managing your own compost system. In addition, learn how to build a customized compost sifter out of wood and wire by making one! Learn basic techniques for using hand- and power-tools and for working with lumber and hardware. As we work, we’ll discuss the advantages of different types of compost bin systems and sifters.RSVP Required.
