Worm Composting


Worm composts are great for colder climates as you can compost indoors (even in your kitchen) year round without creating an odor. It is also great for apartments or patio homes with no garden. This is a simple way to compost kitchen scraps.


Worm compost climate requirements: You can use worm composters indoors or outdoors, as long as you keep it in a temperature between 40-80 degrees F.


The best way to get worms is to purchase them alongwith your worm compost bin. You can also try the worm exchange (those with worms giving them to those who need worms) http://groups.yahoo.com/group/worm_exchange/
If you are handy and want to build your own worm composter (not very difficult), see http://planetgreen.discovery.com/food-health/build-worm-compost-bin.html
