Description

Composting is good for the soil, and good for the soul! Join us to celebrate the upcoming International Compost Awareness Week (May 7-14, 2023) and learn the basics of backyard composting. During this class you will learn about the science of composting, benefits of compostings, and tips and tools for backyard composting. International Compost Awareness Week: "For Healthier Soil, Healthier Food...Compost!" focuses on the crucial role recycling our food scraps and yard trimmings plays by creating compost, which when added to soil results in a recipe that makes our food more nutritious, the air we breathe cleaner and our climate healthier overall. Decker's Nursery is very excited to host a guest speaker for this event - one of our very own customers, Melissa Young. Melissa Young is a Master Composter, certified in NYC and she's going to join us to share her passion for composting. This is a subject that we love to see simplified and we believe Melissa can help others recognize how easy it is and why we should all participate at home. We're opening this presentation up so more people can attend. We will be hosting it outdoors to accommodate a larger crowd so please dress accordingly. If we end up getting rain on this day, the plan will be to host the event the next day - Sunday, April 30.
