Sponsored by the U.S. Composting Council, it’s the largest environmental education event for composting. Across the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom, composting advocates will be encouraging everyone to compost—whether you’re a do-it-yourself gardener or community-based professional.

Urge your mayor or city council to go green by signing a proclamation that supports composting. A sample is available for regional use and modification.
