In this first episode of our conference mini-series, join me and Sam Baker, founder of Wriggle Brew, as we uncover:

• How earthworms can digest plastic waste and transform it into sustainable fertilizer
• The science behind worm tea as a natural bio-pesticide that helps plants defend themselves using preserved plant compounds like capsaicin
• Building a startup from a college senior project to securing NSF and USDA grants, and the importance of customer discovery in developing sustainable solutions
