WHAT MEMBERS ARE SAYING
Debbie
“This is a simple action that we can all take that contributes to a bigger solution to some of our problems.”
Bridget
“It’s been super clean and tidy, and I’ve got a little girl and she loves it.”
Chloe
"This worm farm has been a bit of a catalyst for change for us. After signing up to Why Waste, we felt like we'd made a step towards reducing our footprint and it felt great! So we started looking for ways to reduce it in others.
We're walking to the supermarket more often, taking our jars down to the refillery. A managed worm farm was such a simple change for us to make, and I love watching the ripple effect it's had on our lives so far."
