Worm Workshop - 2008/06/04 21:15 I would like to try doing a worm workshop where I show folks the benefits of worm bins and get them started. I want to make it VERY SIMPLE for the participants-- give them a bin, bedding, worms, and Worms Eat My Garbage or some other literature. However, to cover the costs, I would have to charge a fee that would keep too many from coming, I'm afraid. I'm figuring costs to be about $20 for a pound of worms, $8 for a bin, and $14 (I think) for the book, and I can shred paper for the bedding. That's over $40.

I thought about doing an introductory workshop where they get info and bins, then order and deliver worms the following week, then about 3? weeks later have a follow-up workshop to troubleshoot/answer questions/etc.

Has anyone done this? Has anyone had a city or solid waste district sponsor the workshop? I'm just not sure people will fork over that much money to hear about something they may not be interested in doing.

Any help out there?
