The Rotten Journey: A Guided Composting Activity
Compost workshop: We'll provide the scraps. Participants may also bring scraps from home, friends and co-workers. We will build a new compost pile, take temperatures, learn about the various stages of thermophilic composting, turn compost piles, feed worms and sift the finished compost. We will interact with the macro-organisms and learn about the micro-organisms that are working hard to break down the pile and rebuild the soil food-web. The Rotting Journey is a 2 hour immersion experience into scraps, soil and the creatures that make up our soil-foodweb. We won't feel hurt if you choose to stand by and observe but we highly recommend immersing yourself into the activities and getting your hands and clothes dirty. Close toed shoes are required.
