Backyard Composting & Rain Barrel Workshop Planned

The Lawrence County Conservation District and the Lawrence-Mercer Recycling/Solid Waste Department are partnering on a workshop about backyard composting and stormwater management.

The class is set for Tuesday evening, November 16, 2021 from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.  It will be held at the Albert P. Gettings Annex (the former church) across the street from the Lawrence County Courthouse.  Attendees can enter through the doors facing the courthouse on Milton Street.

The cost to attend is $10 per person, payable at the door, and each attendee will receive a compost bin.  The program is open to everyone regardless of county.

The workshop will cover stormwater management at home, including rain barrels, rain gardens, and other best management practices along with the why, what, and how of backyard composting.  The session will also discuss the importance of doing these things at home and their relevancy to our communities and society.

Register by calling or emailing the Lawrence-Mercer Recycling/Solid Waste Department at 724-658-6925 or jzona@lawrencecountypa.gov.
