PLEASE PLAN FOR:
A day outdoors, be prepared for both shade and sun.
Park in the school parking lot or mindfully in the adjacent neighborhood.
You will be learning a specific composting method. Bring a notepad and ask questions!
Participants are encouraged to bring a bucket of kitchen scraps from home to add to the compost pile. The process and resulting compost will benefit from your energy contribution! An invitational suggestion, friends -- not a requirement.
Bring a jar from home. We hope to send folks home with some activated BD preparation for your gardens.
Suggested Restaurants: On The Alley, Los Agaves, Natural Cafe, Oat Bakery, Mesa Burger
