Through my contacts with the Missouri Sustainability Projects group on Facebook (
https://www.facebook.com/groups/258344407610091/), the discussion has turned to vermiposting, or composting with worms. One of the members there mentioned having given a presentation on the subject and/or taught a class.
I know we have a few members at Arch Reactor that enjoy growing green things or would like to, so I suggested that we host a presentation at Arch Reactor by a couple of the members of Missouri Sustainability Projects. Perhaps something along the lines of a guest speaker for a Show and Tell or a part of the open house. If there is enough interest after the presentation, then a more in depth class may be formed at that time.
I believe that this is a natural cross-over between these two groups and could bring in a few more members to Arch Reactor, too. Many of them are very much the do-it-yourself type and a few or our members have the desire to work on sustainability projects. If we advertise it correctly, we could bring in more people with an interest in this subject who aren't members of either organization.
Just to get the ball rolling in the right direction, please post here if you would be interested in seeing such a presentation on worm composting.
