Attend this informative presentation from the Florida-Friendly Landscaping to learn tips and tricks about the science and art of composting.
Yard trimmings, leaves, and other landscape waste can be combined with kitchen waste in the composting process to create fertile, organic matter that can be added to soil, mulch, and potting soil to help your plants flourish. Composting is nature’s way of recycling…actively helped along by you!
