Join us for the next Green Drinks Bathurst, a relaxed and engaging evening where people interested in the environment, sustainability, and the natural world come together to share ideas, meet new people, and hear from inspiring speakers.

Introducing Dr Ernie Harbott from Compost Culture!

Ernie was destined to be a professional composter, but her hobby as a composter was always taking up all her focus. After earning a PhD in Biogeochemistry (about the closest things to a doctorate in composting you can get, it’s all about the microbes) she kicked around as a teacher, here and abroad, mostly preaching environment and sustainability.

What Compost Needs

Why you should invest in compost and understanding what is required for thriving compost including:

• What you need to start composting

• Four basic requirements

• Carbon:Nitrogen ratio and demystifying "browns" and "greens“

• The role plant roots can play

• Time/Maturity

Dr Ernie will happily field all you composting queries.
