Vermicomposting relies on worms to produce nutrient-dense vermicast from recycled organic food waste and other natural materials. The project takes up very little space, making it a convenient and effective way to fertilize, condition and thus improve the productivity of your home garden. This Idaho Green Thumb How-To provides you with all the basics, including color photographs, that will help you to build your own highly effective system.
