The upcoming workshops allow residents to learn more about topics including composting, worm farming, organic vegetable growing, natural cleaning and reducing food waste.

The Home Sustainability Workshops will be held across the city throughout spring.

The workshops provide local residents with simple day-to-day actions that can have a positive effect on the local environment.

If each household was able to reduce the amount of green and organic waste going to landfill by using the techniques learnt in the workshops the landfill at West Nowra would have a much longer life.

Numbers to all workshops are strictly limited and bookings are essential.
