Republic Services is hosting our second Citrus Heights compost workshop of 2026. In our workshop, you'll hear from a compost expert on the foundations of compost, how to use it in your garden, how to create and maintain a backyard compost station, and how the material in your organics bin becomes industrial compost.Our workshop will be hosted by Republic Services and Patrick Rodysill. Patrick is a permaculture-certified garden designer, educator, and sustainability leader with over 35 years of hands-on experience in regenerative land stewardship.

Earlier in his career, he owned and operated a small CSA farm that provided fresh food for 75 members, grounding his design work in practical agricultural experience. He also manages a small compost production site and has designed and taught numerous composting and food-growing classes throughout Northern California, offering clear, solution-oriented guidance to gardeners and land stewards of all levels. With more than three decades of experience, he is dedicated to helping communities grow food, build healthy soil, and cultivate resilient, sustainable futures.
