Event Details

Build a Backyard Pet Waste Composter


Puppy Powered Gardens

Half of all households in Waterloo Region care for a pet, which means a lot of pet waste. If dealt with poorly, pet waste can contaminate waterways and burden our landfills. Find out how to turn your pet droppings into a valuable garden resource and take care of the planet at the same time!

 

Workshop Includes

  • Introduction to dealing with pet waste
  • Hands-on construction of simple composters (one per participant) that can be installed underground in your backyard to turn this year’s pet waste into next year’s garden fertilizer
  • Meet and greet with Nomi the REEP Water Dog

Presented by: Cheryl Evans, Water Education Coordinator, REEP Green Solutions

 

Note: Materials for composter will be provided free of charge. Registration limited to 20 people.  Tools will be used during the workshop and so we recommend participants are a minimum age of 12 years.


Workshops are Free of Charge

Tours are free of charge. You are welcome to make a donation to help us create healthier homes and sustainable communities in Waterloo Region. Gifts of $10 or more will receive a charitable tax receipt.
