Smart Gardening techniques use yard and food waste to build and replenish the soil, consume less water, and grow beautiful gardens. The program teaches residents how to divert waste from landfills and reduce greenhouse gas emissions through the simple practices of composting, organic and water-wise gardening, and grasscycling.

Attendees have the opportunity to purchase discounted backyard compost bins and worm composting systems after the workshop. Worm bins are $65 each and include 1/2 lb of worms. Backyard compost bins are $40.
