Santa Clara County Cooperative Extension

Community Workshops in Your Neighborhood

Register and attend a workshop in your local area and follow the instructions provided to you via email after. All workshops are in-person and indoor unless otherwise noted. 

Composting Basics:

This workshop will focus on composting of backyard trimmings and food scraps. Learn about compost application - your soil will thank you!

Worm Composting & Composting for Small Spaces:

This workshop is best for those living in multifamily units or other homes without yard waste. Recycling your food waste reduces greenhouse gas emissions and is fantastic for your house plants.

Composting Systems

Through the County of Santa Clara, our program offers discounted backyard composting bins to Santa Clara County residents who attend our workshops. We are currently distributing the FreeGarden EARTH composting system to all who qualify. Check out our schedule below.
