Join us to learn how to compost with UF/IFAS Extension Sarasota County.
About this Event

Join us to learn what UF/IFAS Extension Sarasota County is doing around the region with composting, waste reduction and recycling. This workshop blends indoor lessons with outdoor, hands-on activities in our compost demonstration area, and includes live demonstrations of our biogas and vermicomposting programs. Please register for this event ONLY at ufsarasotaext.eventbrite.com rather than any third-party websites, as they are not affiliated with our classes and events.

Attendees will learn the basics of home composting, the benefits of composting, and how to build a home compost system. Plus, attendees will have the option to purchase a GEOBIN compost bin (see registration options, below).

NOTE: There are two registration options for this workshop:

  1. Workshop PLUS a GEOBIN compost bin: $25 registration (includes bin cost), which must be made in advance of the workshop.
  2. Workshop with no GEOBIN: Cost is free.

Make 2024 your year to start composting and reducing your impact on the environment!

INSTRUCTOR: Randall Penn, UF/IFAS Extension Sarasota County waste reduction agent
