Vermicomposting, or worm farming, is an enterprise that can be as large or small as needed—it can even be done indoors.

We gardeners know that compost is black gold—it nourishes our soils and plants with micro nutrients unavailable in commercial fertilizers, and the bacteria and fungi feed the soil food web.
