5. Compost Area

The compost area is the fifth stop on our self-guided audio walking tour.

As you look behind the greenhouses, you should see large mounds that look like mulch. What is compost? What makes up the farm’s compost? How do we ensure that the compost decays properly? Is it possible to compost meat and dairy products? What is vermicompost? Explore all of these questions and more during this stop on your tour.
