Join SA Composting Project for an introduction to Eisinia foetida, commonly known as the red wiggler worm, & how to compost with worms. Composting is one of the best ways to reduce our own waste, produce new life for plants, drastically improve soil quality, increase moisture retention, and so much more. Closing the waste loop is critical to becoming more sustainable, and it is super easy to do!
Participants will learn how to vermicompost at home. We will assemble 27-qt habitats to take home for a donation, using shredded cardboard with an ounce of red wiggler worms, while learning about how vermicomposting benefits soil health in gardening/landscapes. Help reduce organic waste at the source, improve garden soil quality, increase soil saturation capacity and water conservation.
