Program Description

Event Details

Ready to go green at home? Join Mike Manfre (Superintendent of Sanitation for the Town of Glastonbury) and Alastair Ong, Esq. (certified UConn Master Composter) to learn the secret recipe for the easy, low maintenance composting. Plus, get the opportunity to see a fascinating worm composting bin at work!

Your food and yard wastes can easily be turned into a nourishing and valuable soil addition. Discover the drivers of the decomposition process, find out how to troubleshoot and avoid problems, and become aware of the many benefits of compost.

This "black gold” is revered by gardeners for how it enriches the soil and reduces wastes sent to landfills and incinerators. It also reduces carbon dioxide (CO2) and other powerful greenhouse gases.

All that and it’s easy and free! Your garden and the planet will thank you!
