The Ojai Garden

Jessica Craven gave another inspiring and informative compost workshop on December 10th in the City of Ojai Community Demonstration Garden.
The workshop covered all the basics of composting. Jessica shared many tips to make composting easy, and answered everyone's questions. Participants pitched in and built a compost pile out of dry leaves, fresh grass clippings, manure and fruit and vegetable peelings. The compost will be all ready to use by the next compost workshop!
