Wormery Composting
November 8 @ 1:30 pm - 3:30 pm
Free
Come and join our Farm Net Zero team and the Tregovenek Community Farm team and learn wormery composting tips from an expert.
Ben Bryant from Sustainable South Hams will be delivering the workshop and has a wealth of experience in composting, soil regeneration and the sustainable use of earth resources.
This is a free two hour workshop on vermiculture and vermicompost to include practical experience of setting up a tiered wormery and a DIY option.
There will be plenty of theory on the benefits of vermicompost and everything you need to know about the worms and the system to set up a successful wormery in your garden.
Whether you have previous knowledge or not, come along to learn more.
Please wear clothing and footwear which is suitable for the weather conditions and rough ground. The garden is working towards being wheelchair accessible but currently attendees will need to be able to walk on uneven ground.
Tea and coffee will be provided but we ask you bring a travel mug with you as the farm have limited catering supplies. Facilities are a basic with a composting loo.
Please note these directions:
The farm is situated on the edge of Bodmin Moor, near the village of Pensilva.
Please do not follow sat-nav directions as very often these are incorrect. Ensure you are coming to the Pensilva end of Attwood Lane as it is not passable from the lower (Cutkieve) end.
From Liskeard(A38) travel north on the B3254. Turn right just before Foredown Common and Pensilva (signposted Pentiddy Natural Burial Ground). Parking is ¼ mile on the left opposite the granite sign, and Tregovenek is across the road at the top of Attwood Lane.
From Launceston(A30) travel south on the B3254. Pass the Pensilva turn on the left and continue down next to the common. Take a left beyond the cattle grid (signposted Pentiddy Natural Burial Ground). Parking is ¼ mile on the left opposite the granite sign, and Tregovenek is across the road on the right at the top of Attwood Lane.
Please cancel your booking on Eventbrite if you can no longer attend so we can offer the space to someone else – thank you.
