Getting your Compost pile just right.

About the Panel 

Have you tried your hand at creating the perfect backyard compost – only to be plagued by rats, fungi, or bad smells?

Whether you have a large property, or small backyard – the principals Ken will demonstrate can be tailored to your situation. With advice, and years of knowledge, join Ken at the Agricultural Education Program in the Robert Schwarten Pavilion Thursday 12:45pm.
