Learn about vermicomposting with Catherine Rokakis and Haley Mowatt, members of the Sustainability Ambassadors Program. They'll walk you through the benefits of hyper-local composting, respond to concerns about smells and creatures, and help correct assumptions about messiness.

  • This workshop will begin with a brief educational component, explaining the process behind vermicomposting, the positive environmental and social impacts, and how worms provide many essential ecosystem services that contribute to the health of our soil and quality of our food.
  • · Through a live demonstration, participants will then learn how to assemble two and three level vermicomposting system at home that can be used to dispose of food waste, produce worms, and produce fertilizer both for indoor plants and outdoor gardens.
  • · The session will also include tips and tricks to keep your worms and composter working efficiently.
