July’s Second Saturdays event was all about composting! With the help of special guests the Master Composters, from the Riverside County Waste Management Department, the Ameal Moore Nature Center hosted a free composting workshop. Visitors were able to learn about the different kinds of composting, why it’s a good idea, and how they can get started. Visitors were also invited to create their own mini compost piles with plastic bottles and supplies provided by the nature center to see the decomposition process that takes place inside of compost bins.
The center would like to thank Riverside County Waste Management and the Master Composters who donated their time to educate us on the ins and outs of composting! The center was proud to partner together with you and looks forward to a good relationship in the future!
If you missed this fun, free, and family friendly event, be sure to join us next time in August, on Saturday the 8th from 11am-2pm as we talk about water conservation!
