Who would have thought… a bunch of environmentalists are heading to enjoy the Winnipeg Folk Festival? It’s true! If you are also heading out to Birds Hill Park July 6-9 to enjoy the amazing music, food and community found at the festival be sure to stop by and say hello to some of our composters.

Where to find us at Folk Fest

Family Tent – Main Festival Site: Friday, Saturday & Sunday
1pm – 3pm each day
We’ll have our vermicomposting worms to touch and feel, colouring sheets, and a simple craft to make a worm bookmark. Stop by and have some fun with us!

Festival Campground: Friday, Saturday & Sunday
@ Pollock’s Fix It Shop (near food vendors)
12-3pm each day
Look for the friendly folks wearing Compost Winnipeg t-shirts! We’re letting people know about how to bring the love of compost home with them when they return to Winnipeg by promoting composting and our home and office compost pick up programs.
