About the Farm

Background

Vermicomposting has been utilized for millions of years by nature to recycle organic materials into fertile soil. This business leverages this natural process to help households manage organic waste efficiently.

Practices

The business employs worms to consume organic waste, converting it into castings that enrich the soil. Worms are kept in controlled environments where their population adjusts to the size of their habitat. The castings produced are rich in beneficial bacteria and microbes, enhancing soil health and plant growth. Unlike synthetic fertilizers, these castings integrate into the soil, improving water retention and nutrient availability without the risk of runoff or toxicity.

The Rest

Worm composting reduces landfill waste and provides a safe, organic method to improve soil fertility. The process is space-efficient, requiring only a few square feet, and the worms naturally reproduce to maintain an optimal population.
