Dear Colleague,
Relatively little is known of the Invertebrates that live in our compost heaps and no systematic survey of compost faunas has been conducted in the UK. Garden Organic has joined forces with the University of Plymouth in a project to catalogue the fauna of our compost heaps and bins in order to gain a better understanding of their role in the composting process. We are inviting schools to take part in this process.
If you would like to be involved in this exciting project, please go to http://www.gardenorganic.org.uk/composting/survey/ for details of how to register your interest, and download the intsructions and survey form.
Many thanks
