[ARCHIVED] FREE Backyard Composting Classes

Non-Modesto residents are also welcome to attend, but there will be a $35.00 tuition cost for those living outside the City. The next fall class will be held on:

  • Tuesday, October 18, 2016 from 6:30pm-8:30pm
*Advanced registration is required by calling 209-575-6063.

Those attending and completing the class will be given a $5.00 coupon toward the purchase of an Earth Machine compost bin. The class objective is to make information available on backyard composting, waste reduction/minimization, waste efficient yard care and vermicomposting. With fall just arriving, this is an excellent opportunity to show people how to make compost from their garbage waste and grow amazing fruits, vegetables and flowers in their own garden.

From Garbage to Garden, Happy Composting!
