Join SCARCE as we dig deep into the fundamentals of composting and demonstrate why composting is a simple and affordable way to fight climate change while reducing landfill waste, rescuing water, and restoring soil. You will learn the do’s and don’ts of at-home composting, how to set up your bin, and tips for troubleshooting things like unpleasant odors. Already compost at home? Get answers to your compost questions to fine tune your composting skills.
Composting is the process of breaking down organic matter, such as food scraps and yard waste, into nutrient-rich soil. This soil can then be used to nourish plants and gardens, reducing the need for harmful chemical fertilizers.
Not only is composting great for the environment, but it can also save you money on gardening supplies. Plus, it's a fun and easy way to do your part in reducing waste.
Join us in learning more about how composting can benefit your home and the world around us. Let's get started!
