Master Composting Class

Subject: Coming up... Master Composting Class.

What is a master composting class you ask?

A master composting class is a week-end class that covers everything you ever wanted to know about composting. The classes cover what to compost, how to compost, how to build a compostiing system in your yard or garden, and a variety of other topics related to gardening. It is a great opportunity to expand you knowledge as well as teach others.

When: April 25th and 26th
Cost: free (the City of Saskatoon pays the tuition)
In addition you recieve a manual in a binder, a reference book (or two depending on your horticultural experience and enthusiasm, a DVD and a certificate - as well as go on a field trip to the City's compost depot on McOrmand Dr. In return you are expected to share you new found knowledge in your community or through community events (generally, you are asked to volunteer for the Saskatchewan Waste Reducation Council).

Location: TBA (likely on U of S Campus)

If you are interested or would like more information please call me (Dana) at 655-5322.

I would love for some community gardeners to be able to take part in this training! I have worked with Master Composters in the past and found it to be a wonderful education.
