Composting & Worm Farming

Are you looking for practical ways to reduce household waste and build healthier soil?

Perhaps you've attempted a compost heap but it's not really doing anything?

Why not join us at the Ashburton Community Garden for a hands-on worm farming and composting workshop run by Eco Educate.

This free session will explore simple, low-cost systems that turn food scraps into valuable compost and worm castings — perfect for home gardens of all sizes.

This is a relaxed, practical workshop focused on sharing skills and learning together, whether you’re just starting out or looking to improve what you already do.

You’ll learn:
- How worm farms and compost systems work
- What worms need to thrive (and common mistakes to avoid)
- How to set up and maintain a system at home
- How compost and worm castings improve soil health and plant growth

Free event - All welcome
