The 5 Critical Components to Making Good Compost" - with Star City Compost
Hosted by Wild Ones Roanoke Region ChapterPublic Welcome Free Event Chapter Meeting Program/Speaker Presentation Wheelchair Accessible Public Restroom Free Public Parking Drinking Fountains
Come learn about the 5 critical components to making good compost from Davey Stewards of Star City Compost. He'll talk about the proper C:N ratio in a compost pile, moisture content, airflow through the pile, inoculating the pile with decomposers, and size of the pile. He'll talk about how people can ensure they are accounting for those components in backyard piles, as well as how it's addressed at Star City Compost.
Star City Compost officially opened their doors as Roanoke's only composting facility in January 2024. Star City Compost provides residential and commercial services for composting responsibly, so food scraps stay out of the landfill and instead become nutrient-rich soil. With their strong mission, values and community building rooted long before that, the vision of creating an ecological infrastructure for the local community has come to life in the greater Roanoke area.
Come prepared to learn and ask questions, whether you're new to composting, a seasoned composter, or even new to the idea of composting. We are lucky to have Star City Compost's wealth of knowledge with us.
We hope to see you there!
