​Ever wondered how to start school composting in the cafeteria or classroom? Join a panel of NC Composting Council board members and staff (Kat Polk, Muriel Williman, Matt Collogan & Christine Wittmeier), along with Friends School of Wilmington’s Corrie Slay as they discuss process, challenge, and success stories from first-hand experience. Hear how the Coastal Composting Committee in New Hanover County developed school infrastructure through the integrated Garbage to Gardens program , Chapel Hill-Carrboro Schools used data, beta-testing, and volunteers to launch a system-wide organics collection, and Friends School of Wilmington created a composting curriculum for all students Pre-K through 8th grade in this hour long webinar. Together, we can pave the way in North Carolina for other communities to grow their school composting programs!
