KENT—Join Kent Conservation Commission and Kent Memorial Library in the Junior Room on April 18 at 10:30 a.m. for a program exploring the process of turning food scraps into compost with guest presenter Carol Franken, Ed.D. 

Children in Grades Pre-K through 4 will observe decomposition and learn about the advantages of keeping food scraps out of the waste stream.

There will be a read-aloud and participants will go home with plants grown with compost.
