Mecklenburg County to go natural and learn to make rich fertilizer for
spring gardening.
In their ongoing effort to reduce waste, experts from Mecklenburg
County Solid Waste Management have announced a series of workshops in
composting and other methods of residential organic waste control.
Anyone can compost almost anything organic – from vegetable peelings
to yard waste. Instead of relegating all that organic matter to the
garbage can, learn how to put it to good use.
The workshops are held the following Saturdays from 10 a.m.-noon and
the cost is FREE. Register at our website at http://wipeoutwaste.com,
under the Home Composting tab, or call 704.336.4304 to sign up.
