Heres what My experience consisted of:

I was assigned to work at the booth “the worms ate my garbage” booth which was all about vermicompost. I really enjoyed working this booth as it was already an interesting subject that I have personally researched before and I was getting to experience it first hand while also teaching others along the way. We shared the directions for creating a worm compost as well as let kids have a hands-on experience with the worms. Me and the 2 booth owners explained all the details of what to feed the worms, how often, what to avoid and even what to do if a multitude of problems were to occur.

This booth relates to APES because it contributes to the solutions against waste problems in America. Vermicompost is a very small way that people can implement sustainable living into their everyday life. I feel like this experience further influenced my dedication to environmental sustainability and I had a great time.
