Welcome the Master Gardeners for a presentation on a topic they are experts in: Vermicomposting!
About this Event

Have you ever wondered what happens when you give a thousand red wiggler worms your kitchen scraps? They can eat roughly half their body weight every day and turn it into vermicompost, a soil amendment so nutrient-dense that it makes store-bought fertilizer look like fast food. If you missed our first workshop on this topic in the spring, now is your chance to learn about and ask questions around vermicomposting! In this workshop, we'll teach you how to build and maintain your own worm bin, what to feed (and what to avoid), and how to harvest that black gold for your garden. No experience needed, just a willingness to get up close with some of nature's most underrated recyclers.

* There has been a change in instructor *

Please welcome Helen Martin and Nancy Kruberg from the UC Master Gardeners as they help facilitate this workshop on vermicomposting! This non-profit is made up of a group of passionate volunteers trained by university experts in horticulture, pest management, and environmental stewardship. Their mission is to provide science-based, objective gardening advice to the public through helplines, workshops, and community projects. Look forward to their extensive knowledge and experience around worm composting!

¿Alguna vez te has preguntado qué sucede cuando les das a mil lombrices rojas los restos de tu cocina? Pueden comer aproximadamente la mitad de su peso corporal cada día y convertirlo en vermicompost, un abono tan rico en nutrientes que hace que el fertilizante comercial parezca comida rápida. Si te perdiste nuestro primer taller sobre este tema en primavera, ¡ahora tienes la oportunidad de aprender sobre vermicompostaje y hacer preguntas! En este taller, te enseñaremos cómo construir y mantener tu propio compostador de lombrices, qué alimentar (y qué evitar) y cómo cosechar ese oro negro para tu jardín. No necesitas experiencia, solo ganas de conocer de cerca a algunos de los recicladores más subestimados de la naturaleza.

* Ha habido un cambio de instructor *

¡Demos la bienvenida a Helen Martin y Nancy Kruberglos de los Maestros Jardineros de la UC, quienes nos ayudarán a impartir este taller sobre vermicompostaje! Esta organización está compuesta por un grupo de voluntarios apasionados, capacitados por expertos universitarios en horticultura, control de plagas y gestión ambiental. Su misión es ofrecer asesoramiento científico y objetivo sobre jardinería al público a través de líneas telefónicas de ayuda, talleres y proyectos comunitarios. ¡Esperamos con interés sus amplios conocimientos y experiencia en el compostaje con lombrices!
