The Art of Composting

Introducing you to the essentials for successful composting, at home, at the allotment or on the farm. This course will equip you with the knowledge of how to turn organic 'waste' into nutrient rich soil.
On the day we will cover;
the different types of composting processes
how to identify and improve most soil types
how to recognise and solve the most common problems in a compost pile
how to use finished compost
​
This is a mostly practical course. You will be given the opportunity to build a real life composting pile, so come prepared to get your hands a little dirty. You will also be offered the theory of why and how it all works, as well as seeing some of the systems in action.
