World of Worms (and waste)

Get up close to a gardener’s best friends: worms! Our composting worms have been busy turning our food waste into compost and we need your help sorting the worms from the compost in our fun light/dark experiment. Learn all about worms and their role in the composting process, and make a mini wormery to take home. Take our sustainability challenge to learn about waste and recycling, and plant a seed in an old food container to take home. NB Please bring a small empty water bottle and a food container (eg bean or tomato tin) if you have any in your recycling box!

In this family workshop, we’ll host an interactive storytelling session acting out scenes from the book. You’ll also get the chance to meet some real-life super worms and have a go at worm charming.
