2023 Projects
We’ve had a lot of fun this year, supporting communities around Birmingham to get composting. We’ve run ‘workshops at Wheelers Lane Allotments and Highfield Hall Community Centre, to support plot holders, local residents and community groups, ran activities at Martineau Gardens for British Science Week, built up a trusty team of expert composting volunteers at Wheelers Lane to make beautiful compost from the site’s unwanted green materials, and we rounded off the year with a pumpkin smash for the little ones. Watch this space for our upcoming program of events for the 2024 season.
