Residential Composting Programs
Have you ever thought, “Could I do something with my trash?” What if you could unlock a valuable material from your trash to make your lawn and plants healthier and stronger? Sounds like magic, but your trash contains about 30% organic material. Combine this material with trimmings from your yard, and you can make a soil supplement for free.
Interested?  Great!  Make plans today to join Hernando County Solid Waste, Florida Friendly Landscaping, and the UF/IFAS extension office to learn how. The program lasts approximately 90-minutes and all Hernando County Households will receive a free composter!. Backyard composting is much simpler that you think. With the knowledge and handouts from this presentation you will be set to make things rot. Compost happens, now you can make it work for you!

About the event:

Industry professionals will have the opportunity to join the resident portion of the class from 9:30 AM to 11:00 PM and then stay for the professional portion of this program from 11:00 AM to 2:30 PM to hear from industry peers on how they operate resident composting programs. Attendees will have an opportunity to gain resources and information about backyard composting, how to educate residents on the basics of home composting, and how to build their own compost system.
