Household Population increase of 1000!

So I just finished reading the Book "Worms eat My Garbage," and was so inspired by the thought of setting up an indoor and year round composting facility that produces some of the most nutritive fertilizer available!

First we ordered the "WORM FACTORY" and the worms...


Then we put together the factory and created a cozy environment for the worms...coir, newspaper strips, goat manure, and water.
The worms were so happy to snuggle in!



Now, each week we add all our food scraps to the bin, and after about 3 months we will have beautiful Vermicompost for our garden. How cool is that!!!!

Here is the first tray set up in our laundry room!

Looks like a little boys dream (although... Mia Bella would love it too). You will have to let me know how it goes. I hope some day we will have a house in the country and get to try all of these awesome things too.
