In celebration of National allotment week, Leicestershire Master Composter Rod Weston will be hosting a drop in compost safari session and liquid feed making sessions at groby allotments (as part of an allotment open day) on 14th August.
The drop in compost safari session is an opportunity to explore and learn more about some of the weird and wonderful minibeasts that make compost bins and heaps their home, and the role they play in turning organic waste materials into compost.
There will be the chance to discover compost creatures such as Tiger worms and Leopard slugs, earwigs and worm eggs using magnifiers and microscopes provided and photograph them using your mobile phone fitted with our lenses.
In addition Rod will run liquid feed making sessions at 12 noon and 2.30pm. Please bring a bottle to take some home with you.
This event is free.
