Whether you are growing vegetables, perennials, or ornamental shrubs and trees, the best way to have healthy plants is to start with healthy soil.  And the best way to create healthy soil is to add compost!  Making compost in your backyard allows you to recycle yard and leaf waste as well as food prep scraps into "black gold."

Join Holly Hill Farm educator and Education Director, Wendy Prentiss (and her sister, a former South Pole "winter-over" researcher) for a moderate hike to celebrate the Winter Solstice, the time of year when the midday sun is at its lowest point in the sky. 

On this, the shortest day of the year, we will explore the wild beauty of the winter woodlands and make some stops for learning and for sharing our own reflections on the star on which all life on Earth depends.
