I am out of yard and garden room and need to do something pretty fast with my food scraps. Figure I have 4 choices 1.) Throw away (no!) 2.) Continue to dig holes in yard and stick garbage in (running out of space) 3.) Buy Composter (an option) 4) Try Vermicomposting. - which seems to be the easiest way if you don’t have a large amount of space for composters.
Vermi-Composting uses earthworms to turn organic materials into high quality compost. It can reduce your garbage by 1/3 and provide excellent organic soil for plants and healthy food. This sounds pretty good, no chemical fertilizers, save money and the environment!
