EarthWhile Australia are based in Byford and work across the metro area to raise awareness of soil microbes and give people in the wider community the opportunity to experience them through their own eyes using powerful microscopes.
They provide presentations, demonstrations, and workshops through school incursions, local groups and community events such as the Waroona Show, Pinjarra Fair and SJ Food and Farm Fest.
They have worked with the John Tonkin College, North Dandalup Primary School, Peel Bright Minds, Community Gardens, individual residents and farmers, sharing their knowledge about the role of organisms and the increasing complexity of plant life as it changes from seaside to old-growth forests. In doing so, EarthWhile Australia have helped gardeners understand how to strategically use microbes to grow desired plants, reduce costs and minimise harm to the environment.
Earthwhile Australia were also invited as guests on Sabrina Hahn's Dirty Deeds podcast, and Steve Wood and Deryn Thorpe's All The Dirt podcast. Listen in to hear more about EarthWhile Australia's work.
