Residents are taking the lead managing worm farms at Lifeview homes to produce Worm Wee with Purpose.
The worm farms are part of Lifeview’s award-winning Planting with a Purpose program.
In addition to boosting sustainability, combating food waste, and producing liquid gold natural fertiliser, the worm farms provide joy and purpose for residents who are keen on gardening.
“Planting with a Purpose is very popular with residents. They enjoy taking responsibility helping maintain the gardens and worm farms," Lifeview Executive Manager – Marketing and Communications Cody Winnell said.
Worms are natural recyclers, breaking down food scraps and creating nutrient-rich liquid fertiliser, often referred to as “worm wee”.
Worm wee is one of the most effective (and natural) ways to keep a garden thriving, adding natural support to herbs, vegetables and flowers.
The worm wee will help keep Lifeview gardens healthy and abundant, also reducing the need for chemical-based products.
As the worm farms continue to grow, Lifeview plans to produce enough worm wee to share.
Worm Wee with Purpose will be offered for sale, extending the positive impact of Planting with a Purpose into the wider community.
“Gardeners will love using Worm Wee with Purpose to help their own gardens flourish,” Winnell said.
Details on how to purchase the worm wee will be provided soon!
If you're interested in purchasing some worm wee for your garden, email jmalcolm@lifeview.com.au and you'll be on the priority list.
