Worm Composting
Worms can turn kitchen waste (PDF, 104 K) into a high-quality compost for your garden. Worm compost (vermicompost) is rich, so you can use less than you would of regular yard waste compost. Worm compost bins, such as the E-ZWorm Composting Bin (PDF, 42 K) can be purchased locally at some nurseries and garden centers, purchased online or you can make your own worm bin out of a large plastic tub.
To make a worm bin:
- Buy a tub with tight-fitting lid.
- Make small air holes in the sides using an ice pick or small drill.
- Drill holes in the bottom for drainage.
