Did you know?
Forbes Hall has a small compost area that is used for composting kitchen scraps. It is turned about once a month, and the composted earth is then put onto the gardens around the hall.
Can you help?
TICA is looking for one or two people to take on “ownership” for the compost bins. We have someone to teach you how to turn the bins and answer any questions as they arise. The equipment is provided.
What would the volunteer role look like?
• Check on the bins regularly, following the instructions given on turning and moving the compost as it decomposes.
• Stay in touch with the other volunteer and arrange your shared work schedule.
This job does not require much time but requires some physical labour and a passion for composting! The tending of the compost bins is necessary to ensure the appropriate reusing of the kitchen vegetable and fruit trimmings and other compostables as soil for the gardens.

Looking forward to hearing from you,
Thanks
