Testimonial
I met Kinga when I wanted to purchase organic worms to set up a School Wormery. Kinga was willing to supply our school, St. Paul’s Missionary College, in Rabat, with worms to start off our wormeries. She offered to deliver a programme about vermiculture and support the boys with any questions they may have about these organic worms. She delivered a short presentation during assembly and gave the children the opportunity to handle the worms and the fertile soil that they produced. Following this, she visited the classes to speak with the children and help them set up their wormeries.
Kinga impressed the teachers and Senior Management Team with her expertise in delivering such an educational workshop with these young children. She captivated their interest and motivated them to become involved in the caring of these fascinating creatures. She is very knowledgeable of the subject and was able to deliver an informative programme in such a professional manner.

“Kilgore Trout once wrote a short story which was a dialogue between two pieces of yeast. They were discussing the possible purposes of life as they ate sugar and suffocated in their own excrement. Because of their limited intelligence, they never came close to guessing that they were making champagne.”
