Composting is the easiest and most earth-friendly way of regenerating garden beds. It can be accomplished in a small bin in a backyard or on a city-wide scale. Matt Ray, a teacher from Milwaukee Public Schools in Wisconsin whose mom is a Geauga County Master Gardener Volunteer, will teach you how to compost your kitchen waste so you can have “black gold” available for all your gardening needs. Matt will teach you how introducing worms - vermiculture - make the finished compost even more nutritious. Matt has been composting with his students for years.

This will be a hands-on, get yourself dirty, workshop!  We will prune peach and apple trees, and small fruits like blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, and grapes.  Bring your own pruners, loppers or saws and dress for the weather.  Participation is expected and is a big part of the learn-as-you-lop-it fun!
