Continuing Education - Composting

Intentional composting is the single, most important human activity that can be performed to improve and maintain healthy soil. Composting is a natural process that has been taking place on earth since life began. It is the biological reduction of organic waste to a stable material called humus. The dark-colored, crumbly, sweetly fragrant layer of material found just under the leaf litter in the woods is humus. Loam, the best soil, is composed of humus, clay, silt, and sand particles. Join Tina Marie in this short seminar to learn which method of intentional composting is right for you. Tina Marie is a very popular speaker throughout the Arkansas “plant world.” Her presentations are a combination of plant science, practical experience, and wit.
