Compost from wood

Dr. Henry has done research and consulting on the use of compost created from chipping of trees that have been thinned for the purposes of fuels reduction and forest health.

 

 “To Waste or Not to Waste”

Dr. Chuck Henry, a University of Washington lecturer and environmental engineer specializing in soils and sustainability, will be speaking in the Barn at Barn Beach Reserve [in Leavenworth] on Friday, September 19 at 7 pm about waste reduction, recycling, composting and resource conservation. This program will be of interest to anyone concerned about the patchwork of recycling programs in the Wenatchee Valley, the impact of the municipal burn ban; managing your yard waste, the challenge of forest land fuel reduction; or clean air and clear skies.
