SUMMARY:CGC: Compost Basics
DESCRIPTION:You’ve heard you should compost…now it’s time to learn how! Composting is just as essential to our lives as recycling and waste removal. With the potential to build healthy soils and reduce landfill area\, this simple action has the power to reduce the negative effects of environmental degradation and soil loss. \nWhether you’re eager to green your lifestyle\, reduce your household waste\, or increase soil health\, there are several options for small-scale composting that can be done at home\, in your garden\, or even in an apartment. Whatever your circumstances\, there’s a method for you! \nThis beginner-friendly class will cover the basics of outdoor composting\, vermicompost\, and bokashi. You’ll learn what a healthy compost pile requires to be productive and how to troubleshoot common issues. Weather permitting\, we’ll take a tour of the CGC’s compost systems and discuss the pros and cons of several types. \nINSTRUCTOR: Mary Dudley\, CGC Director of Education

SUMMARY:How to Build a Handwashing Station
DESCRIPTION:Handwashing reduces the spread of foodborne illnesses—and it begins right in the garden! It’s also a Good Agricultural Practice and essential for the safety of any garden space\, whether that’s a production business or a community\, school\, or backyard garden. \nJoin Nicole Gunderman from Hamilton County Conservation District at our CUF Restoration Site\, where she’ll share step-by-step instructions for making a DIY handwashing station using inexpensive materials. You’ll learn what supplies are needed to stock your station and how to site it at your garden\, farm\, market booth\, or roadside stand. \nIf you’re interested in selling your product to restaurants\, businesses\, institutions\, or food aggregation hubs\, you’ll need to be GAP (Good Agricultural Practices) certified. This class will also provide a brief overview of what the GAP Certification process entails and how to get started if it’s something you are considering. (Spoiler alert: Having a handwashing system is a requirement of the GAP Certification Audit!) \nNote this class will be held offsite at the CUF Restoration site: 2774 W. McMicken Ave.! \nINSTRUCTOR: Nicole Gunderman (Hamilton County Conservation District Agricultural Specialist)
