Improper disposal of manure is unsightly, breeds flies, and can create health issues for your livestock. It also can contaminate local water sources. Using composted manure on your garden and landscaping conserves water, mitigates erosion, sequesters carbon, and can help your plants thrive.
Nancy Zadrozny is a 33-year resident of San Diego Country Estates (the Estates) and the manager of the Estates' Equestrian Centers and Landscape Department. She has applied her background in horticulture and ecology, along with 15 years experience as vice president of an engineering construction firm, to build a vibrant and successful composting program in her community.
Following County guidelines for environmental compliance, the process in its current form produces 50 CY of finished compost every two weeks. The finished product is made available free to the Estates' homeowners and is widely used for gardening, mulching and erosion control.
This webinar will cover the following:
- Manure composting*
- Benefits of composting
- Protecting local water sources
- Preventing odors and flies
