Join us for a relaxed session where you’ll learn the simple principles behind successfully composting and managing organic waste at home 🪱
We’ll explore how to turn food scraps and garden waste into something useful, no matter where you live, whether that’s a single house, a large property, or a multi-unit apartment.
The session is designed to be flexible and practical, helping you adapt the basics to suit your lifestyle.
Topics include:
- Why set up a worm farm or compost system?
- The key principles of breaking down organic waste
- Bokashi bins, worm farms, compost bins and compost bays
- Composting and worm farming do’s and don’ts
- Managing pests and vermin
- Troubleshooting common issues
Preference is given to City of Vincent residents.

Light morning tea refreshments will be provided during a short break.
