Getjawil Multipurpose Room, Kitjarra Meeting Room

Learn the basics of home composting and the creation and upkeep of a worm farm.

Want to get started composting but not sure how? Or have you set up a home worm farm only to run into trouble keeping it running well?


Come hear from composting and worm farm experts Wormlovers as they talk through the basics, answer your composting questions and introduce you to some of the different subsidised home compost and worm farm products offered by the City of Greater Geelong.


Whether you're in an apartment or have a big garden, composting at home is a great way to convert waste into a useful product for houseplants and the garden. It can take as little as fifteen minutes a week to organise, with huge benefits to the environment.


Open to residents of Greater Geelong.

In partnership with City of Greater Geelong
