Composting: An online lesson for kids!

As part of International Compost Awareness Week #ICAW2020, Garden Organic is launching this online composting lesson for kids, which includes this animated video and a quiz to go with it.

We think it works best with years 5-7 (ages 9-12), but anyone else (younger or older) is welcome to join in too!

Watch the video all the way through and then, if you want to see how much you’ve learned, have a go at the short quiz at the link below.
