Everything you need to know about worm composting at home
Have you ever tried worm composting at home?
Vermicomposting (or worm composting) is an interesting topic. It seems simple enough: worms eat scraps and create worm castings. But when it comes time to actually set up your own vermicomposting bin indoors, all the questions start coming up. What should you feed them? How does the tray system work? Will I have worms all over my floor?
That’s why when I met Cathy and Rick of Cathy’s Crawly Composters, I knew they were the perfect duo to break this process down so that we can finally feel comfortable with this unique composting method.
In this week’s video, I sat down with them and asked 10 questions about worm composting at home.
