Vermicomposting – Starter references

Composting takes biological matter and breaks it down to a form that can be used by plants for food. Traditionally it is done outside in piles with the work done by bacteria. In this instance worms are employed. Worm farming can be done inside and if done correctly has no smell or bugs. Most people that compost inside feed their worms kitchen scraps. There is a lot of information available online about worm farming. The sampling of videos embedded below are: a few how on to set up your own bin, an example of worm farming for profit, a couple of time lapse videos, and a college level webinar on vermicomposting. There are many types of bins that can be purchased if you want to go that route. There are also many other videos available online for reference. If you start a bin and run into problems there are troubleshooting video’s too.

Awareness

Many have used the work around mentioned in this article. It is legal in most places. I can’t speak to the practices of this individual, but the food handing practices for organic or naturally raised foods are generally way better than the usda standard when tested for contaminants. People that buy from them expect high quality and get it or they wouldn’t continue to buy.
