Locals encouraged to become worm farmers

Worm-farming and composting will be the topic of a new series of workshops to be held in the Snowy River Shire.

It's an attempt to reduce the amount of green waste going to landfill, and coincides with the sale of worm farming equipment by the council.

The information sessions will be held in Berridale and Jindabyne on the 12th and 13th of May, and Waste Education Officer from the Snowy River Shire Council  Margie Ferguson says that worm farming can be a valuable practice to get into.
