Get wormy with us! Learn how to build your own worm composting bin with the UF/IFAS Extension Sarasota County faculty. Vermicomposting at home is one of the easiest ways to redirect organic waste from landfills. Worms within your compost bin will eat your kitchen scraps while at the same time creating a nutrient-rich soil. This process reduces your impact on the environment and creates natural fertilizer for your garden.This workshop will give you all the tools you need to start a vermicompost bin in your own home with no yard or patio space needed. Not only will you receive a step-by-step guide on how to set up your bin, but you will also learn everything you need to know about keeping your compost healthy and using the rich, fertile worm castings in your garden.
