Worm Watts

Welcome to Worm Watts, where we explore and harness the God-given power of some of earth's smallest creatures -- compost worms -- to transform seemingly ordinary natural "waste" into an amazing, living fertilizer known as "black gold."

Decades ago, my childhood dreams included owning a terrarium with a wide array of odd occupants, including worms. Today, those dreams have morphed and materialized into totes of composting worms hard at work breaking down organic materials into rich vermicompost. Join me as we explore the wonder of red wigglers and European nightcrawlers living in various natural bedding materials and enjoying different feedstocks. We'll get our hands dirty and learn along the way about these fascinating, overlooked, and often-misunderstood creatures and marvel at the omnipotent Creator who fashioned them in perfect wisdom.
