Composting is a revolutionary act!

We have all heard about the importance of compost in the home garden, but why is compost so valuable? How can you produce your own high quality, nutrient rich compost in a suburban garden? Join the Patch of Plenty team where we will demystify the world of compost and get you set up to create black gold in your patch.

We'll talk about affordable backyard systems, how to integrate helpful animals (chooks) and manage unhelpful vermin as well as the differences between hot and cold compost. We will also take a deep dive into compost making for different abilities and bodies, community compost systems and accessing local, sustainable sources of carbon for blending with your patch's resources. This session will include practical components so please bring a pair of gloves!

This event costs $5 per person and is open to residents of the Cities of Holdfast Bay, Marion, Mitcham and Onkaparinga. Reserve your place online.
