August 14: Composting for Fun and Profit

Wondering how to make your soil richer and boost your roses? Wondering how to dispose of all your garden waste? Come to our August 14 meeting and find out how to solve both these problems simultaneously.

Two of our Rose Society members are experts in addressing these questions and will show us how a compost pile can be the key to your gardening success. Michelle and Paul MacEnroe’s program on the 14th is called “Composting for Fun and Profit.”

Paul is a Master Gardener with the Cooperative Extension Service in Oriskany, NY. In that group he’s known as the “King of Composters” who fields all questions which arise on the topic. Michelle MacEnroe completed the ARS Consulting Rosarian training program in June. Both are serious rosarians who exhibit impressive blooms in our shows—definite proof of the rewards of composting. Together they’ll tell us all how to get started and reap the benefits of compost for the rose garden.

As always, the program will also include the Q & A Forum for solving your problems, the monthly rose exhibit of our best August blooms, and the post-meeting refreshment table presided over by Sandy Pizzari. Be sure to join us on August 14th at 7:30 p.m. Guests are always welcome.
