    Field trip! What a fun way to learn about our impact and consumption! What facility did you tour? What did you learn?

    This past week I went to Big Lake Organics and saw how the composting process works! I learned that there are multiple steps to breaking down compost and that compost gets really hot (140 F) when its breaking down!
