SANTA BARBARA ORGANIC GARDEN CLUB PRESENTS FREE TALK ON WORMS, VERMICOMPOSTING

The Santa Barbara Organic Garden Club will present a free talk on "Wonderful, 
Wiggly Worms! The Joys of Vermicomposting" on Wednesday, May 16 at 7 p.m. at 
the Community Environmental Council Gildea Center at 930 Miramonte Drive in 
Santa Barbara. 

The featured speaker will be Michael Thompson, who has 40 years experience as 
an organic gardener and "worm herder."  Dr. Thompson holds a BA in Zoology 
from UCSB, plus BS and DDS from UCSF.  He'll talk about how worms can compost 
all kitchen wastes, describes the various types of worms and show us how to 
make or get vermicomposting bins.  He will also offer free worm samples to 
all who attend. Organic Club member Kate Lundy will moderate.

presents monthly local events and activities on topics of interest to 
gardeners weaning themselves from chemical pesticides, herbicides and 
fertilizers.
