All Staff Council invites you to the Sprout Garden to learn about composting initiatives on campus with Sophia Siegel, sustainability coordinator. Bring your lunch Friday, Sept. 24, at 12 p.m. The Student Alumni Association (SAA) will provide lemonade and cookies. The Sprout Garden is located on 30th Street across from GK residence hall.

You will learn about Sprout Garden and are encouraged to collect food scraps during the week leading up to the event. The food scraps can be brought and placed in the compost bins at the Sprout Garden during the event. Food scraps to compost include produce waste (banana peels, apple cores, vegetable scraps, etc.), coffee grounds or loose tea, rinsed eggshells, and bread/tortillas. Please see the flyer outlining items not to be composted at the Sprout Garden. Contact Sophia Siegal if you need a container for your compost.
