WHY VERMICOMPOST

The Top Three Reasons Everyone Should Vermicompost

1. By Vermicomposting, you can reduce the amount of garbage you send to the landfill. Vermicomposting is especially effective for Canadians, because it is harder for us to use outdoor composters in the winter time. By Vermicomposting, you can continue to compost all year long! The average Canadian produces about a tonne of waste each year, and approximately 1/3 of that is organic matter. Imagine what a difference it would make if we could all keep that much waste from the curbside!

2. Worms produce beautiful black compost called "castings". It's a nitrogen rich fertilizer, it's organic, and it's one of the best soil additives on the planet.

3. We all need to work together to make the environment healthier, and vermicomposting deals with our waste in a clean and healthy way. And, once you have your worm composter up and running, it's free forever. In fact, you may produce enough worms to share with your friends and family to help them reduce their waste too!
