About the Farm
Background
Located in Virginia, this farm has become known for its dedication to raising and selling red wiggler composting worms. The farm guarantees live worms and emphasizes the benefits of using these worms to create compost that can grow healthy, organic produce. Their worms are popular among gardeners worldwide for their efficiency in turning kitchen scraps into nutrient-rich fertilizer.
Practices
The farm employs vermicomposting, a method where red wigglers convert food waste into compost in about one-third the time of typical composting processes. These worms secrete enzymes and have a longer digestive system, making them highly efficient at breaking down organic matter. The resulting vermicompost is rich in nutrients and can be used as a natural fertilizer for gardens and lawns. The farm advocates for using red wigglers as a sustainable alternative to chemical fertilizers and landfills, promoting soil health and reducing waste.
The Rest
Red wigglers can consume their own weight in organic matter within an hour, making them an excellent addition to any composting plan. The farm offers various purchase options, including bulk orders, and provides free shipping across the USA. Worm composting not only enriches the soil but also saves money on gardening supplies like fertilizers and pesticides. The farm's worms are easy to harvest and maintain, requiring minimal space and effort.
