What do you do with your food waste?
Do you bag it and send it off to a landfill?
By burying it in a landfill, it creates methane gas and contributes to
polluting our groundwater.
STOP IT!
Let worms eat your garbage. They LOVE it and, in return, the worms will give you castings to put in your gardens and lawn.
You will grow healthier, bigger vegetables, fruits and flowers, all pesticide/herbicide free.
Using earthworms and microorganisms to convert organic waste into black
earthy-smelling, nutrient-rich humus is known as "vermicomposting".
Let earthworms help you turn your food waste into a valuable resource.
Our presenter Susan Quinby-Honoer, founder of Red Hen Enterprises, (http://www.redhenenterprises.net/services.html) will teach students about how they can keep vermicompost worms at home without any need for turning or flipping your pile.
