Tump 39: Community Compost Toilet Build with Compost Mentis (Day 2)

Join us in the unique urban wilderness that is Tump 39 in Thamesmead for a weekend of practical workshops and hands-on activities where you'll learn about composting and soil care, as well as co-designing and building a new compost toilet for the site with soil and alternative sanitation co-op, Compost Mentis.

A free meal will also be provided by local food legends, Chef Yogi's!
