Let It Rot: Turning Scraps into Garden Gold

Let’s talk garbage—specifically, your kitchen scraps. And even more specifically, your fruit and vegetable waste (sorry, no meat allowed, folks!). Composting is the ultimate act of alchemy, transforming what might’ve been trash into rich, soil-building treasure. Whether you’re a newbie gardener or a seasoned green thumb, composting is a rewarding way to nourish your soil and reduce waste.

Vincent Pinto, Naturalist, Ethnobotanist, Wildlife Biologist, and his beautiful wife, Claudia, a passionate Activist and Environmentalist, join Caroline to discuss Raven's Way Wild Journeys, their wilderness survival school in the Sky Island Region of southern Arizona. They will discuss the importance of everyone knowing how to build a shelter, how to make fire, how to find water, and which wild plants are edible and medicinal. In todays changing world of deadly tornados, storms, earthquakes and floods, it could mean the difference between life and death.
