Everything you could possibly want to know about how to successfully run a worm farm.

Worm farming is a great alternative to disposing of your food waste in the rubbish bin while creating natural fertiliser for your garden. By recycling food scraps in a worm farm you can help reduce organic waste disposed in landfill, in turn reducing the production of leachate and greenhouse gases from landfills. Worm ‘castings’ are ideal natural fertiliser for your garden and cost nothing!

Our Worm Farming 101 Workshop covers the following topics:

Why have a worm farm? Learn why food scraps & garden waste must be taken out of our rubbish bins
Setting up your worm farm
What goes into your worm farm?
Learn about different worm farm options
Maintaining your worm farm
How to use worm castings & ‘worm juice’ on your garden
The vital role of organic matter & humus in your soil
Outlining the human health problems associated with using synthetic fertilisers on your edible gardens
Answers to the most common problems with worm farms
