Some volunteers from
Shropshire Master Composters have been working alongside staff from the
Council and
Veolia to get residents into the composting habit this week. All week we have been touring around the county with the mobile exhibition trailer and the cut out compost bin, speaking to hundreds of residents about how to compost more and waste less.
Its all part of the annual
International Compost Awareness Week which is trying to get more people to compost at home. Over the course of the past week, volunteers manned stands at the following events:
- Sunday 7 May 2012 - Babbinswood, Charity Plant Sale
- Tuesday 8 May 2012 - Shrewsbury Town Square
- Wednesday 9 May 2012 – Oswestry Town Centre
- Thursday 10 May 2012 – Ludlow Farmers Market, the Square
- Sunday 13 May 2012 - Whittington Green Fayre, near Oswestry
Over the course of the week we spoke to hundreds of people so lets hope some of them will take up home composting of the back of it.
