Event Date and Time:
05/09/2009 - 9:00am - 1:00pm
At Your Dekalb Farmer's Market, 3000 E. Ponce de Leon Ave., Decatur, GA 30030. Keep Dekalb Beautiful, in partnership with Dekalb County Extension Service and their Master Gardener Program, will host a compost demonstration workshop to celebrate International Compost Awareness Week. Composting transforms landscape trimmings, fruit and vegetable scraps into a dark, crumbly, sweet-smelling soil amendment. This practice saves landfill space, conserves natural resources, and improves soil quality. Event attendees can receive Master Gardener advice, free compost bins, vegetable transplants, and enter a drawing to receive a rain barrel! For more information, call 404-371-2654 or email
