Worm Cafe Subsidy

The City of Canning offers residents a $120 subsidy on the purchase of a worm cafe. The subsidised price you pay is $115. The Worm Cafe is made of recycled plastic and consists of 4 trays on legs with a tap. The package includes 1kg of worms (approx. 4000), blanket, 15L of castings, instruction booklet and 500g of dolomite. Worms will work through most kitchen scraps, require a bit of attention and the cafe is best set up in shade where it can remain moist.

Please indicate if you are interested in purchasing a worm cafe with your registration.

Please bring cash on the day as well as proof of residency.
