Materials cost: $12 (includes worms and starter bedding for indoor or outdoor bin) You’ll leave with your own mini worm hotel and a starter colony to begin composting right away.
Winter is the perfect time to slow down and let the microbes—and worms—do the work. In this hands-on session, you’ll build your own worm “apartment” or “hotel” from upcycled materials and learn how to keep food scraps cycling through the colder months with almost no effort.
We’ll cover:
How to set up an odor-free indoor worm bin (vermicomposting)
Balancing scraps and bedding for happy, productive worms
Low-maintenance outdoor options using coffee grounds, leaves, bunny bedding, and other free neighborhood carbon sources
Designed for apartment dwellers, home gardeners, and anyone curious about keeping organic matter local year-round. No experience needed—just curiosity.
