Compost Auraria is a group of volunteer composting advocates representing all three insitutions on Auraria campus. They’re working toward a campus-wide composting program, starting with a pilot program in the Tivoli Food Court. Check out yesterday’s news coverage of their efforts:
Shawn Hendrickson is a graduate of the Master Composter program that Denver Urban Gardens operates in partnership with Denver Recycles. The primary goal of that program is to train community members in the ins and outs of composting, and in turn, equip Master Composters to share their skills with the greater community. Props to Shawn and members of Compost Auraria for doing such a fantastic job bringing their knowledge and enthusiasm to the staff and students at the Auraria campus.

Are you ready to start composting at home? Denver Urban Gardens also offers free public compost trainings beginning in May (check back in April for a schedule!), and resource sheets on the basics of composting.
