Continuing the spring gardening saga around here… Hubby helped me put together a worm bin!

Made entirely of materials we had on hand, this zero cost composter is my first go at vermicomposting. I followed the instructions here, subbing in a different size box and a recycled boot tray. The tray had a bit of a crack, so I used some good old duct tape to fix it up.

Hubby drilled the holes so it has plenty of air circulation. It will be set up on something (like recycled pots) so that there is plenty of airflow and the worm juices can drip out. Now I just need some newspaper and worms and we’re good to go!
