The Eco Warriors - Worm Farms
A group of
the West Melton School, Eco warriors look after the worm farms. They also look
after a small garden at the worm farms too.
The Eco
warriors enjoy planting and looking after many different types of plants.
Above
is a picture of the ‘Bulb Forest’. Next to the bulbs is the small plant
nursery. We like to find plants that are not doing very well and help them grow
properly by standing them up and making sure they have enough sun and water. We
have made an irrigation system that helps us water the plants too.
The Eco Warriors
look after the three worm farms and are hoping to get a new one soon. In the
worm farms we feed them old food scraps, paper towels, tea and coffee. The
worms are not allowed to eat citrus (orange peels). You are also not allowed to
touch the worms because it burns their skin.
We hope you have learned lots
about worms and think about environment too.
Thank you, the Eco Warriors.
