Therapeutic Horticulture with Amy Petersen HTR
Learning to Compost with Worms
Wiarton Arena and Community Centre, Auditorium 7:00pm-8:30PM
June 13
Vermicompost is a fantastic way to save some of your food waste from ending up in the landfill. Worms can live indoors and convert food scraps into healthy humus for your plants. Learn the basics of how to set up and maintain a worm bin, what food and care they need, managing issues and of course how to use their waste in your home or garden.
Those that are ambitious will be welcome to take home a small amount of worms to start their own colony!
