Learn to Master Gardening: Composting 101
First in a New “Master Gardening” Series
Come to the Timberland Library in Hoquiam on Saturday, March 25 and learn how to begin composting for your garden. In this one-hour class presented by certified WSU Master Gardener Chris Koehler, you will dig into composting methods so you can make great living compost at home.
You will focus on making high-quality compost that you can NOT buy at the nursery. Subjects to be covered include compost types and methods; compost maintenance and testing; and all about the microscopic soil elements that are so vital to successful gardening. Unlike store-bought, good homemade compost is fresh, in balance, full of oxygen and teaming with microorganisms.
This class is one of a four-part “Master Gardening” series sponsored jointly by the WSU Master Gardeners of Grays Harbor and Pacific Counties and the Hoquiam library. Topics for the additional three programs will be announced.
The one-hour class begins at 1:00 p.m. The Hoquiam Timberland library is located at 420 7th Street, in Hoquiam. If you have questions, contact the library at 532-1710.
