| Don’t Forget to Compost! As the weather improves and plant production picks up, you may find yourself with more veggies than you can eat! While this is not a bad problem to have, we encourage all of our customers to save space at the landfill and instead partake in organic composting. Composting is not only great for the environment and saves space in your garbage can, it can save you money on your own garden at home. Look at our graph below to learn how we compost at our farm and how you can begin your own compost pile at home! |
