Posted: Monday, April 7, 2014 by: Rose Mills | Category: Education

Compost Workshop on April 22 at Way
Join Vicki Gallagher, 577 Horticulturalist, and Judy Hagen, City of Perrysburg Storm Water Management Educator for an informative program on composting. Vicki and Judy will teach you how to make compost from your table scraps and garden debris. You will also learn the basics of composting to make your own garden fertilizer and compost tea. Small scale composting with worms (vermicomposting) all the way to large scale garden composting will be discussed. This program will begin at 7:00 p.m. and is free and open to the public.

Way Library presents Rain Gardens and Barrels on April 24
Discover rain gardens and their role in storm water management on April 24 at 7pm at Way Public Library. Rain gardens provide habitat for wildlife, absorb more rain water than a traditional lawn while removing pollutants from storm water and recharges the ground water. Learn how rain gardens, rain barrels and rain chains can enhance your landscape. This workshop will cover site selection, plant selection, and installation and maintenance considerations. Vicki Gallagher, 577 Horticulturalist, and Judy Hagen, City of Perrysburg Storm Water Management Educator, will be the presenters. This program is free and open to the public.
