How To Compost In Situ by Morag Gamble

21/10/2018 By

In this masterclass, Morag explores 5 simple ways to compost in-situ. Morag’s permaculture design approach is to integrate composting systems throughout the garden. This helps to keep the soil improving constantly and is an easier/lighter way to manage fertility in the garden. Morag explores some of her favourite ways to do this

1. compost ‘tractor’

2. worm tower

3. chop and drop

4. green manures

5. trench and bokashi

With a selection of these systems integrated through your garden, you will notice such a difference in the health and vitality of your food gardens.

Morag’s next masterclass is on 29th October at 8 pm, Brisbane time. The topic this month is “Design for water resilience in your garden”. To book for this masterclass click here.
