Tails to Trails
Explore Ox Bow’s diverse terrain through hills, valleys, fields, and woods with your canine companion.

Dogs must be on a leash and controlled at all times.

Compost vs. Vermicompost
Decomposition is a natural process that, if maintained, can result in nutrient-rich matter. Vermicompost is using worms to get the same soil additives, but in different conditions than traditional composting. Participants will see examples of both compost and vermicompost setups, with DIY and commercial versions of each. Common hurdles to each practice will be discussed along with do’s and don’ts.
