About this event

This workshop gets down to the dirt! Kids will learn how composting and worm farms turn kitchen waste into nutrient-rich soil.

Through observation and hands-on activities, they’ll meet wriggly worms, learn what they eat, and build their own mini compost system.

Join us at our beautiful Discovery Centre at Highforest by Mirvac. There is plenty of free parking available and the Cumberland State Forest is located right next door for a picnic or wander afterwards, so make a morning of it!

  • All children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
