Vermicomposting – Making Gardener’s Gold
June 24 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Are you interested in learning how red wiggler worms can help you turn food scraps into “gardeners gold”? Join Waste Resource Education Officer, Cyndi Fraser, to learn all about vermicomposting. This workshop will teach you how to setup, maintain, and harvest your bin, giving you nutrient rich castings for your lawn and garden.
Cyndi has been working for Solid Waste Resources (SWR) since August 2021 as a Waste Resource Education Officer. During her time at SWR she has been the lead on multiple projects including the Condo Clear Bag program, the Let’s Be Clear Litter Doesn’t Belong Here school program, and the Vermicomposting Pilot project. Cyndi enjoys the variety of tasks that her position entails – from interacting with the public at a Home Show, to working with students on proper sorting, to developing new programming the role of educator brings the variety and flexibility Cyndi enjoys!
Cyndi will offer 3 vermicomposters to the attendees (we will draw names if there are more than 3 interested in receiving a vermicomposter).
The workshop will be held at the Tantallon Public Library on Tuesday, June 24th from 6:30 to 8:00pm. The event is free and open to the public. Donations are greatly appreciated. We welcome new volunteers to help with events like this one. Please contact us at info@transitionbay.ca for more information.
