How To Start Worm Composting [Simple & Cheap]

Here's how to add worms a DIY worm composting bin made from two 5-gallon buckets. This system cost me $0 to make since I acquired my upcycled paint buckets for free.

For my worm composters I use worms purchased from Uncle Jim's Worm Farm. Uncle Jim will give you a 10% discount on your online purchase if you use the coupon code "greenshortz" at checkout. website: www.unclejimswormfarm.com
(disclosure: I don't make money from this...they just deliver a great product)

Worm composting (vermicomposting) is a great practice as you'll be reducing your trash footprint and turning those "waste" materials into organic garden soil amendment (worm castings and compost) and liquid organic fertilizer (worm tea). Creating these products yourself with save you some serious money!
