Douglas County community members can learn more about composting at a free workshop hosted by Common Ground, a community gardening and urban agriculture program.
Stan Ring, former Douglas County Extension horticulture program assistant and Douglas County Master Gardener, will lead the workshop.
There are four workshops planned, each covering the same content so participants only need to attend one.
The workshops are free, but the county asks that people respond by email to ubayramoglu@douglascountyks.org indicating which sessions they would like to attend.
The dates, times and locations are as follows:
• Thursday, June 6, 6 p.m., Penn Street Community Garden (1313 Pennsylvania St.).
• Sunday, June 9, 10 a.m. at the Garden Incubator at John Taylor Park (200 N. Seventh St.).
• Tuesday, June 18th at 6pm at the Growing Together Community Garden at the intersection of West Third and Alabama Streets.
• 10 a.m. Saturday, June 22, Incubator Farm, U.S. Highway 24/40 across from Teepee Junction
