There will be a new and exciting Food Waste Prevention/Master Composter training programme run in Mallow.
The new programme will have food waste prevention as its main emphasis, and participants can also expect full training in all aspects of home composting.
The course will consist of 3 Thursday evenings: 21st and 28th of June and 5th of July from 7pm to 9.30pm, as well as Saturday 7th July from approximately 10am to 3pm.
The training is free, and all course materials will be provided for participants to keep, but participants will be expected in return to volunteer up to 30 hours of their own time in "spreading the word", passing on the environmental and financial benefits of food waste prevention and home composting in their own communities.
Similar programmes have been run, with great success and participant enjoyment, in several locations throughout the country.
Further information on the course will be made available at
