Homemade Camp Compost Bins!


Camp Rising Sun is going green....one step at a time. Today our Arts and Crafts chief Chelsea was helping this process move along thanks to this morning's art project. Chelsea and campers were working together to make compost bins for camp. Everyone had the chance to use their artistic ability to paint the bins for some creative decoration. After they dry, Chelsea will then drill holes into the bins and fill them with soil. From now on after lunch campers will have the opportunity to put their leftover food such as vegetable and fruit scraps into the compost bins. This bin will help decompose and recycle organic material to create fertilizer. Who knows....maybe there is some gardening in Camp Rising Sun's near future?
