Show Notes

Currently own a worm farm or thinking you might like to? This week we meet Richard Thomas from Wormlovers

Hear about the history of Wormlovers and their journey over the last 10 years and learn from Richard’s knowledge on the benefits of worm farms for the home gardener. Check out the Wormlovers website to see the range of not only worm farms but planter boxes, wicking beds and other garden accessories.

Whether you’re a large family or living on your own, Richard will explain not only the waste reduction benefits of the worm farm but the reward of the effect of worm castings and worm tea on your garden.

New to worm farms? Here’s a few tips to starting:

  • Place the worm farm in full shade
  • Add a bedding of compost, soil or other suitable organic matter to the tray
  • Add composting worms (1000-2000) - these can be purchased from Wormlovers
  • Add small amount of garden/kitchen waste as well as waste paper/cardboard - remember not to overfeed your worms!
  • Dilute worm tea to a ratio of 1:10 and use on your garden
