ACS Compost Workshops provide training in the best methods for converting agricultural waste and organic matter into highly effective organic fertilizer. ACS Compost Workshops are located near compost production facilities that practice the Advanced Composting System principles.

During visits to the compost site we will demonstrate what was taught in the classroom in a real work environment.

Our updated curriculum expands the hands-on time at the compost site to increase the confidence level of participants so that they can go home and produce highly effective organic compost. Compost site demonstrations include:

  • Windrow building
  • Compost turning
  • Watering and microbial inoculation techniques
  • Use of compost process monitoring instruments
  • Troubleshooting
  • Tips on increasing compost quality without increasing cost
  • Determining the value of compost
  • Marketing your product

It is the combination of classroom instruction and compost site work that make the ACS Compost Workshops an effective way for you to get started or improve your existing operations. Learn about compost-based solutions for your municipal green waste, animal manure, or food processing residual management problems. Interact with experienced composters at the Advanced Composting System 3-Day Workshop.

Past Midwest Bio-Systems, Inc. workshop participants have written:

"I have attended five other composting workshops and seminars. The Midwest Bio-Systems seminar has given me the most answers to my technical questions. The folks at MBS use a systematic approach to composting that I found both essential to making high quality compost and making it on a consistent basis. The thing I liked most was the fact that they took composting from the plant's point-of-view."
"Excellent coverage of all aspects—great to be able to see full process in both theory and practice."
"I was very impressed. My trip paid for itself in the first half-day."
"Workshop was full of information and easy to comprehend. Thanks for the great information on composting."
"I liked the one-on-one treatment you provided and the interaction with other composters is a good thing. This is a system that works! And I came away knowing how to do it!"
