Compost & The Power of Fermentation

  • Historic Hartnett Community Garden 1904 Loma Linda Street Southwest Atlanta, GA, 30310 United States (map)

Interested in turning your food scraps into fertilizer for your plants? Join Food Well Alliance for a workshop on traditional and Bokashi composting, led by Niamke Shropshire-Boykin, founder of GlycoSponge. Bokashi composting involves fermenting food scraps to create pre-compost and nutrient-rich compost tea, benefitting plant health and fertilization.

You'll learn how to transform everyday food scraps into valuable compost. All attendees will receive complimentary bags of materials to kickstart their own Bokashi composting operation at home.
