Compost Workshop

Next date: Saturday, March 21, 2026 | 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM

Bring out your garden's inner jungle.
Adding compost to your soil improves its structure, helps it absorb and hold moisture, supplies slow-release nutrients to your plants, reduces erosion and allows your plants to develop better root structure which helps them grow bigger, stronger and healthier.

Learn how easy it is to make your own compost at one of our free compost workshops.
Palo Alto residents can receive a free compost bin or worm bin (one per household) by attending a compost workshop. Compost bins are available while supplies last.

Register online    or call (408) 918-4640.
