Moree Plains Garden Club Workshops - 19/08/23

This weekend I visited New South Wales, to teach at the Moree Plains Garden Club 🙂 (About 6 hours drive from home - yes, I will travel just about anywhere 🙂 )
I taught two workshops, about worms & composting.
We had over 50 people attend, with a mix of home owners and some farmers from large properties (100-500 acres.)

The club and all the attendees made us feel so welcome (thanks 🙂 )

There was keen interest in Aerated Teas and how they can help make worm castings go A LONG WAY (1 cup cast services up to 250 square metres by foliar application) - and of course about waste reduction and diversion.

I donated some items to the raffle; some samples that my friends at Bardee gave me to hand out (Soldier Fly Poo Fertiliser), aerated tea pumps, castings and some worm farm buckets.

Thanks again to the organiser Leonie and the club president Libby - and all the members - for making us feel so welcome, thank you 🙂

Landcare Field Day - Aerated Castings Tea Application To Grazing Crops - Esk - March 2019

Event Completed By Brian The Worm Man

Event Date: March 2019

Event Name: Landcare Field Day: Aerated Castings Tea & Application To Grazing Crops

Event Location: Esk

Event Subjects: Worm farming, worm castings application methods, Aerated Castings Tea & Application To Grazing Crops.

Event Suiting Ages: Adults

Comments: I was invited to come to a field day by Landcare.

The subject was Aerated Castings Tea and application to grazing crops.

I supplied worm castings (worm poo) for them to make an 800 litre batch of Aerated Castings Tea.

The members had some interesting questions and were very interested.

Remember, a 180 litre batch of Aerated Tea, made from 17 litres of worm cast can be applied to over 10 acres of land !

To make that smaller, 1 cup of castings can make tea to apply to up to a quarter of an acre !

Tea makes the castings go a LOT further and brings the valuable microbial biology to the party.

Comments:This comment has considerable weight, given that the session was at a BCC Master Composters course (the first one ever run) - and Carolyn is an experienced composting educator - so her kind words mean a lot.

"A big thankyou from Whitehill Garden Club.
Very informative and very knowledgeable on his worms.
I would recommend him to any club interested in composting and Vermiculture."
– Mark Steinhardt (Whitehill Garden Club, Ipswich)

Brian, not a question but a great big hug for providing so much wonderful information Just read your post on UCGs. Amazing!

I look forward to many more enjoyable and educational reads and your guides.

Wish i had this information 35 years ago when i had cows, chickens, etc. and energy to do it all.

At 77 I look forward to incorporating as much as I can which is a lot. I'm a doer.

So keep the news coming

BCC Kids Collective, Roma Street
Make A Mini Worm Farm Activity

I was employed by Brisbane City Council (BCC) to run a kid's activity for the Kid's Collective program.

This activity is "Make A Mini Worm Farm With Worms To Take Home."

We completed more than 120 activities, with a total of 190 people "checked in," including parents.

We had to adjust some aspects for COVID rules; but the kids still had a great time.

The child you see here has done 2 other activities with us as well at other kid's collective days; surely a waste warrior in the making.
(Permission gained from parent for photo. Childs face not shown.*)

BCC runs some great programs for kids, including some really educational programs.
Well done BCC !

Just missing Costa to make a perfect photo.

Maybe if I photoshop him in from the plant expo photo? hmmmm . . .

(Someone from Facebook suggested we should make a new kid's show called The Wriggles - ROFL !)

Playhouse OSHC, St Lucia
April, 2022 - Worm Farming Incursion

Facebook Post:

Playhouse Childcare and OSHC is at The University of Queensland.

In 2021, Playhouse has made it our mission to incorporate more sustainable practices into our everyday routines. As a starting point, our Perenties room have created a worm farm to help sustainably dispose of food waste and create a natural liquid fertiliser for our vast gardens!

In March, we were lucky enough to be visited by Brian The Worm Man who showed us the ins and outs of worm care. Our children were captivated from the get go, asking all sorts of questions from “What do worms eat?” to “Can worms live on the moon?” We cannot thank Brian enough for educating our future environmental leaders about the many benefits of worm-keeping and the significant positive climate and environmental impacts

Update - Playhouse OSHC St. Lucia - Incursion

(P.S. Perenties is the name of one of the groups of children)

Facebook & Instagram Post:

Since our visit from Brian The Worm Man our Perenties have gone worm-crazy!

Using the tips Brian gave in his presentation about worm care, the Perenties have authored and illustrated a “Worm Book” to help others interested in worm farming take the leap. You can find a copy of the Perenties’ “Worm Book” in our reception and in the Perenties classroom.

Brian’s visit was part of Playhouse’s 2021 goal to become more sustainable. Our worm farm aids us in this mission by providing us an environmentally responsible way to dispose of food waste and giving us a natural fertiliser for our gardens!

Tivoli STEM 2019

"Second time I have sourced worms from Brian for kids natural environment and biodiversity education programs.

First time I used African Night Crawlers, this time he recommended European Night Crawlers.

On both occasions the activities and program catered for around 400 children and their parents.

Brian was incredibly helpful, and knowledgeable, provided all the information I needed and supplied healthy, active worms.

On both occasions he also harvested some worm cocoons for me which encouraged great curiosity amongst the children and adults most of whom had never seen them before.

At the end of the night some keen gardeners (and fishermen) took them home.

Thank you again Brian for sharing your expertise. I will be back again next year for worms (if the program runs again)."
