EM1 Composting

 

Is there a new way of composting? Terry from the A Garden Club, will share with us this new technique. Composting is the most organic way of fertilizing your soil, and getting the healthiest vegetables you can grow and eat. We all need good composting knowledge. Terry will help us grow in the garden and in our heads! We are almost at the end of our growing season. This might be a good thing to learn before you put your bed to sleep for the winter, or give you the information you need for the spring before you plant your spring seeds.
