Fun Fact: Composting
During flower processing, leaves get stripped, stems cut, and guard petals on roses get removed.
Instead of throwing them in the trash, I drop them in a bucket as I go. We then compost the flower waste along with our veggie scraps and coffee grounds. We'll use this fresh mix in our gardens. I'm not sure you can get anymore DIY than making your own dirt. 😆
We lovingly call our gardens #007acrefarms, and you can find and follow that hashtag on instagram. We've created a grass free city sanctuary and certified wildlife habitat and we absolutely love it.
We're glad to share and chat about ideas for making your city lot a more sustainable place for you and the environment. We're looking forward to warmer weather and tons of garden time outside!
