So, noa and i wanted to compost more that we did, and being in an apartment its not very easy to do. but luckily vancouver subsidizes all sorts of composting, and so i signed myself and lauren up to take a worm composting class, where you get everything you need and the knowledge to keep them alive. so quite few weekends ago now it feels like, we went to the class one beautiful saturday afternoon. it was outside, and super packed with i think about 40 people who were also attending the class. it was about an hour long, and we learned all sorts of things about worms. then at the end they gave us the bins and supplies we needed.
here is what we got, 2 lids, the bin, bedding material, a book, a little garden utensil, and a bag of red wrigglers!
put the bedding into the bin
and finally, add your pile -o- worms!
so now, we can take our compost and put it to work feedling the worms, and at the end i get some worm castings out of it! wicked!
to start off the first month, we can only feed them 1 Liter of compost a week, but that will grow to 4L a week, which i think will be more than enough for us to be able to compost all our greens!
and, their new home under the bbq
