    Sustainable Gardening Workshop

    Tuesday May 2, 2023 at 1:30 pm  OC, The Heights

    Attend our sustainable Gardening Workshop and learn how you can contribute to a happy, healthy environment for all of us while giving your own garden a wonderful boost in nutrients.

    Our focus is on composting and we will have ‘Composting Kits’ available for purchase at $10 each to get you started.  The  kit consists of a 5 gallon bucket with holes already drilled in it on the sides and bottom.  Some twigs in the bottom and a small bag of nutrient rich dirt to get things started.  All you will need to add are GREENS:  your fruit and vegetable scraps (banana peels, apple cores, coffee grounds, etc) plus BROWNS: cut up clean cardboard, dried leaves, shredded newspaper.   Then add water and  the nutrient rich dirt (in the kit) to get started.  In 6 to 8 weeks you will have your own ‘Gold Dirt’!!

    This ‘Gold Dirt’ can be used in potted plants, in the garden as a topping for any plant (fertilizer).  Also it can be diluted in a bucket of water to water any plant.

    We will be discussing lots of ideas on this topic of composting but also other topics regarding Sustainable Gardening.  If you have a lot or some or no experience we welcome you to join us.

    Thanks for your interest,

    Robin, Mark, Marie and Pat
