In preparation for the 2010 spring growing season, the Community Action Organization, Grassroots Gardens, and the Curtiss Urban Farm Foundation are presenting a FREE workshop on Organic Composting.

Composting means the controlled decomposition (decay) of organic material such as yard trimmings, kitchen scraps, and wood shavings. Compost helps the soil absorb and retain nutrients and moisture, and protects plants from diseases and pests. Better moisture retention means less watering, allowing you to conserve water and reduce runoff pollution.

Come to this great opportunity to learn and share a variety of organic composting techniques while assisting Buffalo’s first urban farm in enhancing its spring soil!!

Saturday, December 19th, 9:00-11:30 AM. Wilson St. Farm (Wilson St between Broadway & Sycamore)
