FAST Students Dig Into Soil Health Using Worm Castings in Collaborative Landscaping Research Project

What happens when landscaping students, environmental architects, and soil health researchers team up?

At Humber Polytechnic, the answer is a thriving collaboration that’s transforming soil from the ground up!

Students in our Landscape Technician Program have partnered with Jocelyn’s Soil Booster, featuring worm manure products from Wastenot Farms, to explore the regenerative power of vermicompost and compost-based soil amendments.

A partnership rooted in sustainability, this project aims to explore how soil health can be enhanced through compost and vermicompost amendments, and how these practices can be applied across diverse urban settings to address current real-world environmental challenges.
