Small Acreage Management
Colorado State University Extension in El Paso County hosts
various educational seminars and workshops throughout the
year on small acreage management. As they become available
they will be advertised on this page and you will be able
to download registration materials here.
New Small-scale or Backyard Composting WWW site
A significant fraction of the solid waste generated in the
U.S. is organic material like yard trimmings and food scraps
that can be recycled through small-scale composting. The Cornell
Waste Management Institute has launched a new WWW site at
http://cwmi.css.cornell.edu/smallscalecomposting.htm.
The site provides information for both composters and for
educators seeking to promote home composting. Resources include
a guide for developing Master Composter programs, information
relevant to composting at schools, as well as fact sheets,
videos and information on home compost demo sites in NYS.
