Composting & SWACO

Thanks to SWACO, the Solid Waste Authority of Central Ohio, our Children's Gardening Club can now learn to compost!

SWACO's General Grants Program gave us the opportunity to buy a super-cool spinning composter, so that we can share the wonders of composting with the Children's Gardening Club.

Want to learn more about composting, recycling, landfills and more? Check out SWACO's SmartKids website for games, landfill tours and classroom activities.
