Whether you’re brand new to worm farming and composting, have tried before without much success, or are already confident and just want to learn a few extra tips, this practical and hands-on workshop is for you.

The City of Vincent invites you to join us for a relaxed session where you’ll learn the simple principles behind successfully composting and managing organic waste at home.

We’ll explore how to turn food scraps and garden waste into something useful, no matter where you live, whether that’s a single house, a large property, or a multi-unit apartment.

The session is designed to be flexible and practical, helping you adapt the basics to suit your lifestyle.
