Nothing says spring like the sound of peepers, wood frogs, and other amphibian friends. Frogs and toads are a great reflection of the health of our ecosystems, which is where Project FrogWatch comes in. Through this training you’ll learn what spring and summer surveying of frogs and toads can tell us and scientists, all while contributing to real-life data through Citizen Science!

Learn all about the wonderful, soil building benefits of worm-based composting! Find out what makes worms happy, and how to prevent problems. Participants will leave with their own worm starter kit and first ‘herd’ of worms. Bring walking shoes.

Food scraps are a major source of carbon emissions in the US. Before they hit the compost they can be turned into more edible treats. Join SEEDS staff and partners to learn about multiple methods to save food scraps to incorporate into delicious dishes, as well as how to preserve the abundance of harvests for yourself and your community. Stretch your food budget while reducing carbon emissions. We will cover basic techniques from fermentation to canning and curing to drying.

Do you wish your trash bins weren’t so full of wet, stinky stuff? Come learn about the processes and the magnificent organisms that turn your trash into valuable soil amendments! We’ll cover the basics about what materials can go into different composting systems, how to launch a small system in your own backyard, and the benefits that come from compost.
