March Gardening Tip- Start Building Compost Now
Was your new year's resolution to lead a more environmentally conscious lifestyle? Great! Sure, you've stopped using plastic water bottles. And yes, you've been riding your bike more...but what now? Compost!
Composting is a fantastic and easy way to reduce the waste you contribute to landfills, conserve energy, recycle waste, and save money. In addition to being environmentally aware, building a compost pile is the best investment you can make for your garden. Your compost pile will help produce amazingly rich, organic soil that you could only dream of.
