The Moore family is trying their hands at urban farming. We set up a composting system to help me feel less guilty about all of the fruit/vegetable scraps that were going into our regular garbage, and do a little something good for the earth. It's easy, therefore, it will most likely be successful. We have the canister on the counter to collect materials for composting---coffee grounds, apple peels, egg shells, etc, etc. It has double filters in it, so there are no smells involved.
Today we set up the bin which was a
rubbermaid container with shredded paper, the compost from the pail in the kitchen, and WORMS! We bought them at a local shop called Pistils. Dan said that at $25.00 per pound, they're probably better than
filet mignon! Let's hope they are good eaters and workers.
Nate and Chris are excited about the whole thing, and will definitely be very involved in the process. They love the worms, and look at them as their 'new pets'.
