Worm farming, also known as vermiculture, uses special composting worms that can turn kitchen scraps into rich, garden-ready nutrients up to three times faster than a traditional compost pile, all with less effort. We’ll be spotlighting our superstar species, the humble Red Wiggler: resilient, low-maintenance, and perfectly content living quietly indoors or outside.

Please wear closed-toe shoes and clothes you don’t mind getting a bit messy. If you’re concerned about transporting your new worm system home, feel free to bring a towel or tarp.
