Activities: We will be partnering with members from the Pittsburgh Green New Deal to perform a hot composting workshop and demonstrations. In addition we will have activities sifting compost, gardening, weeding, and an interactive session on our Community Bartner Network.

Information: When you arrive at 9:30am, make sure to pull to the site closest to home rule street (at the end of sylvan). You will see two large sheds, a bunch of compost bins and portable toilet to help identify the location.

Make sure to bring clothes toed shoes, long pants, and wear clothes you don’t mind getting dirty! Insect repellent and sunscreen (if it’s sunny), can also be nice to haves. We will have gloves available, but you’re also welcome to bring your own.

We will have lunch available, but we encourage you to bring your own water!

About: At involveMINT, we’re committed to providing worthy causes access to needed goods and services, lessening the burden of securing funding before making change. Our Community Exchange Network is designed to empower individuals and organizations like yours by providing access to essential resources through a unique system of exchange. This network not only supports your environmental initiatives but also strengthens the entire community by keeping resources circulating locally.

During the event, you will get a firsthand look at how food waste is transformed into a valuable resource for our gardens and how these efforts are making a significant difference in Hazelwood. It's a great opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals and organizations who are all working towards a common goal—sustainable community developmen
