Video Overview
Talitha’s video is specifically tailored to composting as a way to reuse and reduce waste. She identifies items that can be added to a compost pile and how to maintain the pile. Composting also helps to retain moisture in soil; a layer of compost in your garden reduces the amount of water it needs. Her message emphasizes a circular system of reusing waste, which benefits our gardens and other plants.
