Composting with worms

Saturday - 29.04.2023

10 am to 4 pm

Laudato Si Centre, Worsley, M28 2ND

Working with worms that turn organic waste into fine compost with ease and speed allows the eco-gardener to intensify seasonal cultivation strategies while replenishing and increasing soil fertility on an ongoing basis. We will build a wormery during this modular course, and learn how to design and implement different systems to compost with worms.

Hands-on activities:

• building and installing a wormery
• making worm towers to place in densely cultivated areas of the garden

The day course fee is £60. Registrations closed.
