The goal of the Quiet Creek Herb Farm & School of Country Living worm composting program is to reduce the landfill-bound organic waste generated from homes and surrounding businesses and to transform those food scraps into healthy soil which can be used to grow food, improve local soils, and build thriving ecosystems. This hands-on workshop will demonstrate the who, what, when, where and hows of worm composting. Also, this opportunity may offer you a chance to win a Worm Composting Bin with Red Wigglers and Educational Curriculum.
