Free sessions on composting
THREE free hands-on composting workshops will be held in the Mareeba Shire.
The workshops will give participants the skills and confidence to divert food scraps, garden organics, paper and cardboard away from landfill – and turn them into a high‑quality compost.
The workshops break composting down into simple, achievable steps that work for every household.
Participants learn a range of organic waste‑processing methods – including cold composting and worm farming – so they can choose the system that suits their home, lifestyle and space.
The Kuranda workshop will be held this Sunday at the Kuranda Recreation Centre from 11am to 1pm
The Julatten workshop will be held at Geraghty Hall on 9 May from 2pm-4pm, and the Mareeba workshop will be held at the Mareeba Sports Hall in Walsh Street on 20 June from 2pm-4pm.
Bookings are essential so call 1300 308 461.
