CREAMERY (Montgomery
Co.) Montgomery County
Cooperative Extension’s Recy
cling Education Office has
arranged with Don Beck, Telford
Borough public works director to
tour the borough compost site on
Friday, November 12, at 10 a.m.
Beck will explain windrow
composting, in which leaves arc
piled into long rows and turned to
manage the composting process.
Telford area farmer Gene Sopel
will join the tour to explain how
he uses compost on his farm
fields. Sopel has spread com
posted leaves from the borough
every fall for the past three years.
The tour is open to farmers,
landscapers, nursery and green
house owners, others in the green
industry, municipalities, and any
one else interested in learning
about medium-scale composting.
Don Beck will explain how the
compost materials are collected
Compost
and how the composting process
is managed.
Gene Sopel will describe how
he spreads the finished compost
on his fields and how his soils and
crops have been affected by the
compost. Beck, Sopel, and Sally
Pick, extension’s recycling educa
tion director, will also be available
to answer questions.
Disposal of organic wastes is an
increasing problem for many
municipalities, farmers and people
in the green industry such as land
scapers, nurseries, and green
houses. Composting on an inter
mediate or large scale turns organ
ic wastes into a valuable soil
amendment and conditioner.
Compost can enhance soils or
replace costly peat and topsoil.
To help the county manage its
organic wastes, extension's recy
cling education office is working
with organic waste generators and
processors to facilitate compost-

ing and other organic waste recy
cling techniques. The recycling
education office is linking organic
waste generators, such as Telford
Borough, who need to find a place
to recycle or compost their wastes,
with composters and organic
waste recyclers such as the farmer
taking Telford’s composted
leaves.
The compost tours showcase
how such networks operate. Addi
tional educational programs to
facilitate these links and to teach

about composting and compost
uses are being planned.
Also, extension is developing
two directories, one of composters
and other organic waste recyclers
and another directory of organic
waster generators.
If you are interested in being
listed in a directory or getting
involved in medium-to-large
scale composting, organic waste
recycling, or using compost, call
