WORMIES feeds food, farm, and yard waste to worms
to produce castings—a high-quality, natural fertilizer.
Why Compost?
The problem with organic waste going to landfills is not just the space it takes up. As organic waste breaks down in landfills it creates methane emissions, causing an increase in greenhouse gases. This affects weather patterns and increases global temperatures. Further, leachate from waste contaminates the soil and waterways.
We’re all well aware of the current need to decrease carbon emissions, and composting does so.
Why Worms?
Studies have shown that as food passes through the gut of the worm, pathogens, carcinogens and heavy metals are reduced or completely eliminated. Further, worm castings contain a powerful mixture of beneficial organisms, humates, bacteria, fungi, protozoa and beneficial nematodes.

- It is 100% organic and free of harmful chemicals.
