Description
Come to the Squam Lakes Association (SLA) headquarters on April 13th from 10:00am – 12:00pm to learn all about composting. Lakes Region Conservation Corp (LRCC) member Miranda Fisher will be running a drop-in composting workshop during that time. She will explain how composting works, its benefits, and have resources to get your own compost up and running.
Composting is a great way to engage in conservation in your own backyard. While it may not seem directly related to preserving the Squam Lakes watershed, composting is a very beneficial practice and is a great way for everyone to engage in conservation. Food waste, and the processing of it, is a bigger issue than you might realize. By composting you can be cognizant of this while also improving soil quality and reducing the impact of food waste.
For more information, or to sign up for this Adventure Ecology program, visit the SLA website (squamlakes.org) or contact the SLA directly (603-968-7336). The SLA also offers other Adventure Ecology programs throughout the year. These free programs are open to the public and cover a variety of nature and conservation related topics. The Adventure Ecology programs are presented by the LRCC AmeriCorps members at the SLA who perform important conservation work in support of the Association’s mission.
The Squam Lakes Association is dedicated to conserving for public benefit the natural beauty, peaceful character and resources of the watershed. In collaboration with local and state partners the SLA promotes the protection, careful use and shared enjoyment of the lakes, mountains, forests, open spaces and wildlife of the Squam Lakes Region.
