International Compost Awareness Week
May 11

Get your hands dirty to celebrate International Compost Awareness Week here at the Museum of Life and Science! Learn all about the critters that enrich our soil, and get hands-on experience to start off your own composting journey. Check out composting activities in The Lab all week, with extra programs and explorations at the Saturday event!
Earth Day is April 22, and it’s also the kickoff for the Association of Zoos and Aquariums’ Party for the Planet: Spring into Action, a yearly celebration encouraging folks to create habitats, reduce and clean up litter, and get outdoors!
Here at the Museum of Life and Science, we have a constant commitment to conservation education and action. We’re bringing some of our green events and programs to the forefront during this season to celebrate Party for the Planet alongside the many other participating AZA organizations. Learn more about the Durham Bioblitz with us, and visit each Saturday this May to explore different green topics with hands-on activities!
