<p>The Worm Inn is designed to be suspended by a shelving unit, a sturdy cross-bar, or a laundry hamper stand, </p>
<p>After designating a place for the Worm Inn, such as a basement, a utility closet, a storage area, a garage, or a classroom, the bag is ready to be filled.</p>
<p>   The only things required for set-up are: <strong>The Worm Inn</strong></p>
<p><strong>Bedding</strong><br />
This includes cardboard items such as egg carton containers, paper towel inserts and newspapers &#8211; avoid glossy inserts</p>
<p> <strong>Food scraps </strong><br />
It&#8217;s best to let the food scraps sit for a few days so the microbial waste can develop, as this is what the worms actually feed on<br />
Amount &#8211; 1-2 lbs of food waste per week is a good amount to sustain a pound of worms</p>
<p><strong>Worms</strong><br />
1-3 pounds of Red Wigglers </p>
<p>      <strong>To fill the Worm Inn</strong>:</p>
<p>some bedding is placed in the bottom to absorb moisture<br />
then a layer of food scraps<br />
followed by the worms<br />
then the rest of the food scraps<br />
finally, a thick layer of more bedding<br />
the whole system is sprayed down with water as the contents need to remain cool and damp</p>
<p>  As the system settles, the worms move upwards, digesting the microbial waste of the food, which results in the castings, a rich fertilizer. These castings (or vermicast) are left below as the worms constantly move upward toward more food. </p>

<strong>Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, From our Family to yours!</strong></p>
<p>What a great year it has been, We have shipped worms all over Canada and the USA. We have a super sale on our worms and complete worm bin kits at the moment, I had said I would run the sale till Dec 25TH. The sale has been going so well and we still have lots of worms, So we are going to keep the sale on for another couple of months, The sale will run for all of January and February 2010 or till we run out of worms. Here is the link to this great <a href="http://www.friendlywormguy.com/composting-with-composting-worms/savesavesave-10-00-off-sale/">SALE</a></p>
<p>There will be Great things going on with us in 2010, we have a number of shows and places where we are going to be guest speakers all about composting with worms, There is also a big composting project starting in February at one of our local High schools (I will keep you posted on that one) It will involve myself the teacher and the students.</p>
<p>In the last couple of years my worm casting have started to sell very well, weather it was sales at one of the shows or a school fundraiser, I am sure the coming year is going to be as good or better then the past few years for worm castings sales. Why do I know this?? because worm castings are the best organic fertilizer on this planet&#8230;.</p>
<p>Thank You so much to all my past customers and I look forward to suppling all my new customers with my super products for years to come.</p>
<p>Jeff,Lorie,Dagan and Dylan Sonnenburg<br />
AKA  The Friendly Worm Family&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>WOW!   SAVE! SAVE! SAVE!  $10.00 OFF <strong>a pound of worms</strong> or $10.00 off the complete <strong>WORM BIN KIT.</strong> <strong>These PRICES are most likely the best in Canada at the moment, So get your orders in.</strong><br />

Yes the red wiggler is the most common worm for composting in North America&#8230;.But the European Nightcrawlers are starting to break walls down in the composting business, The Euro is on its way to being as good or better then the Red Wiggler. The Euro is also twice the size of the Red Wiggler, So that makes the Euro a Very good fishing worm as well.</p>
<p><strong>Half Pound of European Nightcrawlers</strong><br />

 The most common worm used for home worm composting. They are very easy to raise, have great appetites, and breed readily in captivity. They are thought to be more effective at processing wastes than European Nightcrawlers.. But like I said above, I feel pound for pound both breeds are as good as each other at composting in a home composter.</p>

<p>   The older farmers in my area sure gave me some funny looks when I started asking them If they had an Old Fanning Mill hanging around their farms. &#8220;What in the world would I want a thing like that for&#8221;? . They had not used them since the 1950&#8217;s. I heard the story from each, about cranking those old things all day, just to clean that grain so they could plant that years crop. Those machines were hard work, what are you going to do with something like that.</p>
<p>  I told them, I was going to try and harvest worm castings with one. I had not even seen one before, but had only heard of them. After harvesting all my worm casting by this point by hand, with a little 1/8&#8243; screen all night to get ready for a garden show the following day, I was ready to try anything.</p>
<p>  The Orange one on the left came from the farmer next to me, It was made between 1913-1915, by the Young Brothers of Almonte Ontario,Yes that makes this machine about 95 years old. This unit is the first one I got, it is still operated with the hand crank on the side of the machine.</p>
<p> The red one on the right is one I got at a farm sale, the farmer had sold his farm. When I went and looked at it I was very happy to see what I saw. Someone had put an electic motor on it.<br />
Even though the orange one had a crank on it,and made harvesting the castings much easier. If my hands could be free to handle all the used up bedding I was putting through this machine, I could make alot more finished worm castings in a shorter time. After a few adjustments it works great.</p>
<p>  I have made a video of the red one in action!  <a href="http://www.redwormcomposting.com/worm-farming/harvesting-worms-with-a-winnowing-machine/">Harvesting Worm Castings</a></p>

<hr />
This is something I have been wanting to do for a while now, build worm beds out of straw bales, the past 2 winters we had no frost in the ground in the winter months because of the feet and feet of snow we have had up here in Northern Ontario. So having the worms on the ground with 1 straw bale high will work fine if we have the same winter as the last few years.<br />
These worm beds are now full of bedding and worms, I made the bedding with grass clippings,shredded paper,shredded cardboard, wood shavings and aged manure. I added these in layers till the worm bed was full to the top of the bale, Then I got the Old Allis Chalmers B-10 with a 32&#8243; tiller on the back and tilled all the layers a few times, and let it sit for a couple weeks. By this point the bin was on its way to being stocked with worms I have soooo many euros in my soil around the yard they stock the bed on their own.. So far it is working great.</p>

<hr />
 In Mid Winter Liz and I talked regarding this office (Trow on Regent) getting set up with vermicomposting.  there are about 50 employees, about ¾ of whom are office staff, working year round.<br />
They have been composting there for a while now (Liz has been bringing it home!), and Liz would like to get setup properly there, Her bin is getting full at home!<br />
They produce about a Large ice cream pail per week, possibly more if we get going on the rest of the staff who are not currently composting.<br />
 Most of their organic waste is coffee grinds and filters, with a bit of fruit,<br />
The worm bin in the pics is the second bin we setup, The first bin was on the small side, with the amount of organic waste that was being put into the bin for the worms to compost.<br />
The first bin was started with 2 pounds of Red Wigglers, and was about 60 litres in size. good size for a family. but we soon found out it was way too small for the waste Liz was adding to the bin, so we steped up to a 120+ litre bin, this bin has been going for a couple of months now, this bin has been working just fine.</p>
