We had the Compost Stand at Food Gusto last weekend. A good two days with 97 and 98 serious enquiries.

Tomorrow there is a Compost Creatures session at Wigston library starting at 10:30. I understand that there are a few places available. The Compost Safari moves to Melton library on Friday 1st June.

We had a busy, and hot dry day, at Food Gusto in Ashby yesterday with 97 enquiries about composting. Worm composting of dog poo was one of the more popular topics and this is covered in detail on the carryoncomposting website. Back on the stand again today (27th May) when we hope to welcome more foodies to the world of composting.
