Mama's Worm Composting

Wow, What a Garden!

If I do say so myself, my preliminary attempts at creating a "real" garden (vs. the one on my balcony) are going very well indeed! Nothing has died as a direct result of my stupidity (a plus), and in fact most plants seem to be thriving! The worm composting trench is certainly an interesting experiment for me. Not only do I have loads of worms now breeding in the worm composting trench (and babies as well), but I am finding them all over the garden! I thought they would stay put where most of the food was in the trench, but every time I dig a hole to plant a new seedling I find worms big and small. 

What will be the outcome of this experiment? Well, I can't say for sure whether the worms will have a huge effect on the virility of the plants. But I can say for sure that they are spreading like mad, happy as clams, and that things are going very well. Also, this is the first chance I've had in 11 years to do real gardening in the ground (vs. on my balcony), and it is very pleasing indeed. For someone who talks about being outside and doing good for the earth, I don't spend a whole lot of time in nature. This worm composting project has given me a good excuse to set the kids loose in the yard and put my face down in the dirt to see how things work. I'm loving it.

You know, in the second grade we had "career day" in school, and I went as a farmer. Funny how things work out.

Good worming!

Holiday Worm Composting Extravaganza

Let's face it, now that Halloween is over it's pretty much Christmastime. Anyone with kids knows that as soon as the pumpkins get fed to the worms, the kids are thinking of Santa. In fact, this has already provided good blackmail material for my husband and I ("You know, Santa and his elves are WATCHING YOU now..."). Thank god for commercialization.

So, in light of the holiday season being upon us, I wanted to extend a special offer to my worm composting customers that will last through the end of 2009. Buy any worm composting system from Mama's Worm Composting, and you will be able to buy worms at a discounted price of $15 per pound (plus $10 shipping). You can buy worms for yourself for your new worm composting project. You can buy worms for your family for their (surprise) worm composting project. Hell, buy worms for your boss (if you dare). But no matter who you buy worms or a worm composting system for, you will get this special pricing. 

Here are your options:

Can-O-Worms Worm Composting System + 1 Pound Red Wiggler Worms

New Product: Can-O-Worms

I am very happy to announce that Mama's Worm Composting is now an authorized reseller of the Can-O-Worms composting system! I will be purchasing one myself shortly so that I can test it and report back to my readers about its performance. But here's what I know so far...

The Can-O-Worms is a plastic, stacking tray system for worm composting. You can use it outdoors or indoors. While the pictures of the unit show people using it outside in the sun, I can obviously strongly discourage you from EVER placing a plastic worm bin in the sun! The things that I'm particularly interested in checking out on the Can-O-Worms are the ventilation system and how it may differ from the Gusanito Worm Bin as far as keeping out fruit flies and fungus gnats. 

Of course, the Can-O-Worms has a lovely, sleek design, and I think that it a large part of its appeal. The idyllic image of the pretty lady putting kitchen compost scraps into her Can-O-Worms is certainly intriguing. Can worm composting really be so easy? So pretty? Will my kitchen magically become as clean as hers if I use one of these? Only time will tell. Stay tuned for reviews.

Good worming!
