Home Composting and Worm Farms
Approximately 40% of the waste in a residential garbage bin is organic material that could potentially be composted, (Maroondah Waste Audit 2006).
Compost bins, worm farms and worms are available from specialist garden centres and larger hardware stores. There are many different types on the market to suit most households.
Maroondah City Council periodically runs free workshops on how to compost and worm farm effectively.
