Worm Factory

The Worms Crawl In, The Worms Crawl Out (Day 30)

by Psyche on Thursday May 21, 2009

The Rogue loves me! He really loves me!

The present he teased me with arrived today – it is both green and green. I am now the proud owner of a worm composter!

Vermicompost is really quite cool. The worms will eat your basic kitchen compost (now I know where to dump  Audrey II’s contents), leaves, cardboard, newspapers and even some junk mail! The worm casings are great for improving soil and fertilizing plants. Mix some casings with water and  it is considered liquid gold.

Some might consider this an odd choice for a gift but I have been making googly eyes at one of these for quite some time. Being miserly, I could not justify the purchase, so the Rogue did it for me. He knows me so well.

I was going to make one but the Worm Factory will look so much nicer than what I would have come up with. Perhaps at a later date, if I decide I want to expand, I will make my own. But for now, I am good to go.

Except now I need worms. (With the long weekend coming up, we will wait and order some Monday. )

Stay tuned for more adventures of Psyche, Worm Wrangler!
