We are drawn to the outdoors in Spring! Backyard composting is easier than you think and brings a bounty of health to all plants and soils. Save your everyday food residuals such as coffee grounds, tea bags, banana peels, egg shells, wilted lettuce and other organic items. Then add leaves or shredded paper and watch the magic happen! These items that normally go into the landfill trash are a huge portion of waste and can also be beneficial to our health. Backyard compost bins and kitchen counter caddies are now available through the county’s Environmental Services department. Contact Granville County Recycling Coordinator at 919-725-1417 for tips and more details!
