Common Ground, the community gardening and urban agriculture program, is offering a free workshop about composting at 10 a.m. Sunday, June 9, at the Garden Incubator at John Taylor Park, 200 N. Seventh St. in Lawrence.

Composting is the natural process of recycling organic matter such as leaves and food scraps into valuable fertilizer that can enrich the soil for gardening and farming.

The instructor for the workshop will be Stan Ring, former Douglas County Extension Horticulture Program Assistant and a Douglas County Master Gardener. 

The workshop is free and open to the public. To register, please fill out this form.
