Got worms? You should! Vermicomposting takes very little space and is an incredibly easy and effective way to reduce your household waste while producing rich compost. The best part is that worms do all of the work! During this informal discussion, Shannon Forsythe will share the lessons she has learned from vermicomposting both at Lyman Woods and at home. She’ll share information about the different types of vermicomposters, what (not) to do, and how to build your own worm farm right in your home. Location: William F.
