I’ll Have Worms (and You Should, Too)
In one of my happier moments of consumerism, I just ordered a pound of worms from Wendy and Mikey at Holy Scrap Hot Springs.
I’ve been looking for a good source of red wigglers (or Eisenia fetida, a species of worm prized for the rich compost (or “worm castings”) they produce. I’ve got my worm bin set up and ready to go, and am eagerly awaiting the arrival of these new critters.
We have a large compost area already, I really want a worm bin so I can make compost tea using worm castings. Compost tea is a liquid solution that I’ll spray on my garden plants to help improve their health. And I want to help others start their own worm bins through my business, Grinning Jaguar, so hopefully this first batch of 1200 or so worms will be fruitful and multiply!
Steve always says he’s expecting to come home one day and find a goat or two in the back yard. Wait ’till he finds out I’m getting new livestock by mail order….
