This workshop is designed for people who want to start composting, or who are already composting but unsuccessfully.

The workshop is light and informal, delivered by the Cheshire Waste Reduction Volunteers, who work on behalf of Keep Britain Tidy and Cheshire West and Chester council.

The session will include

• Why compost
• Compost bins- types and details for how to access reduced price bins
• What you can and can't compost
• How you mix those ingredients together to make compost
• Troubleshooting advice
• WORMS! and other composting animals
• Harvesting and using compost

We hope that participants will leave the session with all of the knowledge they need to start composting or start composting better. The workshop will have a maximum of 10 people attending and so you will have the chance to ask our knowledgeable volunteers any questions about composting.

We will provide each participant with a composting advice booklet, packet of seeds, flyer for reduced price compost bin and tips on where to look for future guidance.
