CSWD Presents: The Basics of Home Composting — Saturday, September 7th at 10 AM
Chittenden Solid Waste's Community Outreach Coordinator, Lauren Layn, will outline the benefits of "closing the loop" with your own household food scraps and yard debris in a presentation on maintaining a healthy compost system.
Lauren will show you what type of bin is best for you; where to locate your bin; what to put into your bin (and what to avoid!); how to manage your bin; how to harvest your compost; and alternatives to a backyard bin, including pick up service or drop-off composting.
In 2012, the Vermont Legislature unanimously passed the Universal Recycling Law (Act 148). This presentation focuses on keeping organic materials—like food scraps and other food waste—out of the landfill, which will be required for all Vermonters by 2020.
Advanced registration is required — please email Lauren Layn at llayn@cswd.net to register.
