Hot Composting Workshop and Raffle
April 25th, 2026 10:00am-12:00pm. Pre-registration required, space is limited!
*Location TBD, within City of Santa Cruz
Have you been curious about hot composting? Maybe you have tried before but need a refresher. No matter your experience, join the City of Santa Cruz Waste Reduction Staff for a workshop all about hot composting! In this workshop, we will build a compost pile together, discuss best practices for maintaining a bin, and look at strategies for reducing wasted food and why it matters. Plus, enter our raffle to be eligible to win composting accessories!
Finished compost created from a backyard composting system offers a hefty dose of healthy microorganisms and other benefits for your garden and soil. Caring for a compost pile gives you gold for your garden and can contribute to a sense of well-being.
If you already have a composting system that could use some attention, feel free to sign up and bring your questions and photos! We will have time to discuss and learn from each other as a group. The City offers a compost rebate program to get a bin of your own too. Hope to see you there!
