Worm away your garbage
Vermicomposting, or worm composting, is an excellent way to convert household garbage into nutrient rich fertilizer. Composting with specialty worms known as Red Wigglers is a clean and environmentally friendly way to save tonnes of waste from going to landfill.

Why Everyone Should be Vermicomposting
- If you Vermicompost you will reduce the amount of garbage being transported out of the province - The average Canadian produces a tonne of waste each year. Estimated 1/2 to 1/3 of household waste is organic matter.
- Worms produce beautiful black castings - a nitrogen rich natural fertilizer. Totally organic and one of the best soil additives on the planet. Use worm castings in house plants and gardens.
- Odourless when operating effectively - worms eat decomposing matter, therefore eating away any nauseous odours and leaving a fresh earthy smell.
Good intentions and expressions of concern are not enough. Protecting the environment is the most serious challenge we face today. Every Canadian can and must get involved, not just today, but every day.
Dr. Roberta Bondar(1994)
Are the worms right for your cottage?Do you have a cottage? Are you on the watershed? You may need worms. Did you know that adding worms to your outhouse or pit toilet can increase its efficiency. Many cottagers are not happy campers. Why? Because they have had to close down their backyard composters for fear of attracting bears. We have a solution for you. Bring your composting indoors. Consider composting inside the cottage with worms! You can still carry on composting and you will not tempt the bears. These wonderful worms will even continue their job of turning your organic waste into castings while you wile away your time back in the city. |
