Making a Vermicomposter at The Ecology Center

Evan Marks shows us a finished worm composter.

First add coir, then newspaper strips, slightly damp.

Some torn lettuce to start the composter and help the worms get a start on reproducing.

In go the red wigglers.

Top with more damp newspaper strips. 

Sit in a tray to capture moisture from holes drilled in the bottom.

Last Saturday, The Ecology Center hosted a workshop to teach us about vermicomposting and to make our own to use at our homes.
