Sandra Holtry 4/06/2022 3:10 PMI joined this challenge because I have never really done one. Plus I want to make a difference in my well-being and community. I am choosing to reduce waste in my home, and it's going, to begin with, starting a compost area in my yard, that we can use to naturally fertilize the garden I have wanted.
