Join us at Bellwether Farm for a hands-on farm workshop exploring the art and ecology of composting. Participants will learn how to transform kitchen scraps and farm waste into nutrient-rich compost, discover the role of insects and other small creatures in building healthy soil and thriving ecosystems, and discuss which bugs benefit the farm and which can harm crops. Together, we’ll cultivate a deeper understanding of the living world in our gardens and the simple practices that help the land flourish.
