Event Overview

Minimize your ecological footprint and reduce household waste by letting worms eat your garbage! Red wigglers consume their weight in fruit and veggie scraps every day and can double their population in as little as three months.

In this class, Dabblers will construct their own urban worm bins specifically geared for apartment and condo dwellers. Students will leave with a basic understanding of vermi-composting, why worms are "vegetarian," and how to implement a household composting system without leaving the city.

Gloves, if desired, and clothes that can get dirty.

Minimum age

All ages welcome

What's Provided

10-gallon plastic tote with lid, soil, Red Wigglers
