Do you care for or have large animals like horses, cows, llamas? Learn how to protect your local watershed and produce a fantastic soil product from large animal manure! Composting is both impactful and economical while improper disposal of manure is unsightly, breeds flies, may create health hazards and can contaminate local streams and water sources. Using composted manure on your garden and landscaping will help your plants thrive, retains moisture in the soil and reduces runoff into streams and waterways.
