THE MUCKING-IN PACK
The Mucking-In Pack, by Sandra Bywater and Pauline Pears was produced by the Henry Doubleday Research Association for the Wildlife Trusts as part of a project funded by the then Department of Environment's Environmental Action Fund. The Community Composting Network became the main distributor for the pack.
The Mucking-In pack was published in 1997, therefore some things have changed. The main areas of out of date information are exemptions, grants and sources of funding, and schools National Curriculum. The pack was originally published on colour coded A4 cards in a loose folder, CCN has taken the main body of the text and main illustrations and mostly kept it within the same sections for you to download as .pdf files
