    Compost is a gardener’s gold–the secret weapon that creates healthy, vibrant plants that stave off disease and insect attacks, survive drought, and just look better than the chemically dependent plants next door. It contributes to the health and quality of your personal environment and best of all, it’s free! But not all compost is created equal. Come for a lively discussion of materials and bins, plus learn how to make the best with expert Mark Highland, founder and president of the Organic Mechanic Soil Company. Mark is a lecturer, EPA consultant, and regular guest on Philadelphia’s NBC 10! Show.
