For those that missed out on our last composting workshops, we'll host the last one of this season next Saturday at @livinglearningpakenham. Max will be taking everyone through our community compost hub system and explaining the difference between composting methods + how to troubleshoot frequent issues and any other questions you have.

The workshop is free, and you can book your spot by emailing us at max@livinglearning.org.au 😉

See you there!

This weekend we had another great Intro to Compost

This weekend we had another great Intro to Compost Workshop, led by our compost master Max Godber @thebicyclegardener , this time at the Garfield Community Garden @garfieldcommunitygarden . Even with the colder autumnal weather, we had a great attendance of keen local gardeners. Folks seemed especially interested in our Community Compost Hub design, built out entirely from salvaged pallets!

Our next composting workshop will be at Pakenham, on the 15th of April. This will be the last of this season, so don't miss out!

Workshops are FREE, just get in touch to book your spot 😉

Can you remember the last time you threw something

Can you remember the last time you threw something in the recycling bin without being sure it was actually recyclable?

Wishcycling often happens with the best intentions, but it can still be very harmful. Learn more about how to become a better recycler in our latest blog post (link in bio).
