Cherry Grove Farm Composting.

My next goal was to start composting in farms, so more of the community is involved. Further, people who live in condos and don't get to compost due to the restrictions can help the environment by donating their waste to the farm.
Here, the farm would collect the food waste and use its yard and animal waste and compost for the gardens in the farm; in case other people wanted to take the left-over compost.
I talked to the owner of Cherry Grove Farm, Mr Oliver, about setting up Community Composting at the arm and he graciously agreed.
Together, we were able to build a huge compost bin for the public, and the farm decided to advertise it on their website so people get awareness. At the same time, I informed neighbors and friends about this new program, and soon we had people going and putting their food waste into the compost bin.

I thank Cherry Grove Farm for allowing me to setup the bins for Community Composting at their farm - http://www.cherrygrovefarm.com/2012/08/community-composting-at-cherry-grove-farm/
