Compost love

Over here at CLP we love compost and composting. Being able to give back to our earth is so important for new growth and giving the energy we previously took out back. On the plus side composting can be so easy!

At EAST SIDE GROWERS COLLECTIVE, we have 3 composting bins, one for fresh produce, the second one for semi- broken down crops, and lastly our third bin is for fully broken down provisions. Now as composting takes quite a bit of time around 5 months we make sure to keep the compost running at all times of the year.

To keep up dirt the compost we turn the breaking down produce once a month to mix around newer crops and and move around what has been broken down more and put it in the proper place.

You can do it too! Composting is a easy task and a wonderful was to help your plants grow mighty strong. Starting a at home compost can be done by creating a bin outside of your house and mixing in old/rotten produce and leaves and other debris such as pulled weeds.

If you are not wanting to create your own tagline compost bin, their are plenty of organizations to drop your compost off at, one of those being our own garden. Come over to east side garden and drop your food waste in our first compost bin when walking into the garden.

Give back to our earth today with composting!!
