Compost day at Discovery Centre

As well as a demonstration in compost making you will be able to ask questions and get your hands dirty as well as enter into a competition to win some great prizes!

“Compost is full of nutrients making it excellent for feeding plants and the humus in it helps to retain moisture in the soil – so as well as maintaining a beautiful garden you will also be helping the environment,” commented Jennifer Wilson, Recycling Officer at Craigavon Borough Council.

The prizes include a tumble composter, a wormerie and other gardening goodies. The Conservation Volunteers Northern Ireland (CVNI) will also attend the event with their ‘Green Machine’ which facilitates learning about the environment.
