Please join CPCA at the Cleveland Park Library at 6:45 on November 19th for a special presentation from DC Water about Bloom, a remarkable effort at their Blue Plains facility (the largest advanced wastewater treatment plant in the world) to use our residential wastewater to help our lawns and flowers thrive. Here’s a quick teaser from DC Water:
Did you know you are passively participating in one of the largest recycling projects in the world – one helping to restore soils and grow healthy lawns and gardens – every time you flush?
A local, affordable compost alternative rich in organic matter and nutrients, Bloom boosts soil health and offers improved plant growth, drought resistance, water holding capacity and more. Bloom also helps DC Water generate renewable energy, sequester carbon, and save millions of dollars to abate future water rate increases.
During the presentation, you’ll learn more about how Bloom is made and its benefits for home gardens and lawns. Samples will be available for you to try at home.
