Learn to compost at home
Monday, August 9, 2021 by Tai Moses
If you already recycle, why not boost your home sustainability game by learning to compost? Austin Resource Recovery is holding a free online home composting class. “Rather than sending your food scraps and lawn clippings to the landfill, you can turn them into a nutrient-rich fertilizer for your plants, garden or lawn by using a home composting system.” Participants may be eligible for up to a $75 rebate on a home composting system and accessories or a backyard chicken coop. Tuesday, Aug. 10, 6-7 p.m. Register for the class on Eventbrite.
