Interested in learning how to start composting indoors with worms? On Thursday 13 November, the Saskatchewan Waste Reduction Council will be giving a free presentation on how to turn kitchen scraps into “black gold” compost using red wiggler worms.
Vermicomposting is an ideal composting choice for people who don’t have a lot of space (such as those living in apartments or working in offices) or who just don’t want to use a traditional outdoor compost bin. It will also help you greatly cut down on the amount of waste you produce–and keeping organic waste out of the landfill helps prevent methane (a greenhouse gas 20 times more potent than CO2) from forming.
It’s also fun just to watch the little wiggly critters at work, and your plants will love you for it!
When: Thursday 13 November, 2pm
Where: Room 3, Frances Morrison Library, Saskatoon (Google map)
Cost: FREE!
Presented in partnership with the Saskatoon Public Library and the Saskatchewan Waste Reduction Council
