Join us for a fun and interactive session to learn how to turn your small space into a composting wonderland with Worm Wonders!
About this Event

Most people know that compost bins recycle plant waste into rich organic matter for gardens—but did you know that worms can do the composting work for you?

Vermicomposting harnesses the power of worms to transform food scraps into nutrient-packed worm castings, perfect for enriching your soil. Ideal for small spaces and urban living, worm bins take up less room than traditional compost piles and can even be maintained indoors. Whether you live in an apartment or just want an easy way to compost kitchen waste, vermicomposting offers a simple, sustainable solution.

Workshop Highlights:

Learn the basics of vermicomposting and how it differs from traditional composting methods.

Step-by-step guidance on setting up and maintaining worm bins, even in small or indoor spaces.
Tips for managing worm health, troubleshooting common issues, and maximizing compost production.
Discover how to use worm castings to improve soil fertility and promote healthy plant growth in your garden.
