Throughout the week of ICAW, community, school, government, and business events are held to encourage and celebrate composting - all types of composting – from backyard to large-scale.
This year, ICAW partnered with the International Compost Alliance (ICA) to select the theme: For Healthier Soil, Healthier Food…Compost!

- What does it mean for Cannabis producers handling new volumes of material?
