worm farming






Worm farming is a cool low cost way to help the environment your bin only needs to be 8 to 16 inches deep because worms are topsoil feeders because worms like moderate temperatures, place your bin in a shady location where it will not freeze or overheat. Some good locations include:
. Kitchen corner
. Garage
. Basement
. Patio
. Outside the back door
. Laundry room

A handful or two of soil, ground limestone or well-crushed eggshells every few months are good for providing grit and calcium.

























This is how you turn a coffee table into a worm farm.
