Worm bin

I finally made my worm bin yesterday. Composting with worms is great for gardeners without a big yard space. By feeding vegetable scraps, fruit peel and other organic material to the worms, you'll end up with nutrient rich worm castings which will make plants grow really well.

Instead of buying the ready made composters in the market, I bought a garbage can, drilled some holes so the worms can breathe and we're ready to go. Only thing is, worms are not readily available here but I know where to get them. Watch out wormies, here I come!
