Master Composter Instructor Resources

The Solid & Hazardous Waste Education Center (SHWEC) promotes backyard composting through its Master Composter program. The program aims to train and empower local composters to conduct hands on general public workshops that lead to more composting action in their communities. SHWEC has trained numerous composters during the past 11 years. This Website has been developed in an effort to support the network of Master Composters in Wisconsin.
