Worm Composting

Worm composting, also known as vermicomposting, is creating rich compost using worms. Not just any worms should be used for worm composting. Red Wigglers are true composting worms. Worm Compost is a very rich organic substance that is an excellent fertilizer for your garden. A second by product of worm composting is worm compost tea. In a worm composter the worms digest organic matter. The worm castings are the compost but there is also a liquid that will drain to the bottom of the bin. This liquid can be mixed with water to create worm compost tea. The tea can be used in garden beds, planters, and even household plants.
