Event Description

Instructor: Bryan White

Turn your kitchen scraps and certain waste materials into nutrient-rich fertilizer! Compost not only provides a source of slow-release organic fertilizer, it also boosts the community of microorganisms that helps keep plants healthy and improves water retention. Your plants and garden thrive on it! And compost is good for the earth too! By tossing some of what you would normally throw away into your compost bin, you can reduce what you send to the landfill up to 40 percent! Learn composting basics for any type of urban backyard setting.

Please sign in with the volunteers at the door.

$15 fee is payable with cash or check. (Make checks out to Valley Permaculture Alliance).

This facility accepts credit/debit cards.

The Valley Permaculture Alliance (VPA) offices are located at 1122 E Washington St, Phoenix. On the light-rail, it is accessible from E Washington and the intersection at 12thSt. The offices are set back from the street, so turn when you see 1112 on a large beige wall. Take a right and you can’t miss it. This link is very accurate: http://g.co/maps/gdd4h.
