One thing I’ve been interested in starting for quite some time is vermicomposting, or worm farming, or composting with worms. Whatever you want to call it, composting with worms is a fantastic way to get rid of any food scraps out of your kitchen while creating a beautiful soil amendment for your garden.

Having a worm bin in the basement where it can be easily accessed is a great way to give those scraps from the kitchen a purpose much more quickly than if we were adding them to a big compost pile outside.

Today we talk all about the basics of worm farming: how to build a bin, what to add, how many worms and what type, and more!

Question of the week: How to time the tomato harvest (spoiler alert: it depends!).
