There’s always something to learn when we work together. Thanks to everyone who pitched in to help turn scraps into nourishment for the garden yesterday.

What a wonderful way to spend a Friday afternoon! We gathered weeds and turned our compost, and donated some gardening supplies to students who are starting their own school garden in Flushing. Happy Friday from the Ranch!

What a wonderful afternoon creating new compost from our community’s food waste with Big Reuse team members and volunteers. Thanks for all the chopping, mixing and sifting. The new compost is gorgeous! Can’t wait to start spreading it all over our newly planted fall vegetables.
