East Point compost pilot program supporting minority farmers - ANF
/
A composting pilot program in one community is giving back to local farmers and in turn you at home.
Oyun Botanical Garden is one of four drop-off locations for the East Point Community Compost Program.
Residents sign up on East Point Grown where they learn about composting, and then are given a composting kit. Once their bins are full, they will take them to one of four drop-off locations.
“Compost works as that natural fertilizer that I know is safe and healthy, and it is a full circle process,” said Yennenga Adanya with Oyun Botanical Gardens, “The healthier your soil is, the healthier your crops are going to be.”
