    Description

    Composting at the Camden Street Learning Garden

    Let's see how much waste we can keep out of our landfills! Our Compost Kitchen diverts thousands of pounds of food waste to create rich, nutrient dense compost for the Camden Street Learning Garden and its neighbors. Flip compost with us to help us close the loop of sustainability and nutrient-dense transform kitchen scraps back into food for our soil! No experience is necessary. Please review our Garden Policies and Procedures to review inclement weather plans and other site-specific information.
