Tauranga City Council has been running worm composting workshops since 2003 to help residents to reduce the amount of organic waste they send to landfill via their rubbish bin or bag.
Over half of the average residential bin/bag is food or garden waste which could be composted instead.
To date, Council has introduced 1,307 worm farms into the community. The next worm composting workshop is on Saturday, 29 September 2018.
Due to the popularity of the workshops, the $34.50 tickets must be pre-purchased from Council’s website.
There will be four workshops held in the next 12 months in locations across the city.
