This is how I started doing composting worms to make castings for growing food and also for feeding chickens and other livestock. I used totes in my house before the days of children so anyone can do this in a spare bedroom or even a shed.
I upgraded from totes in the house to wigwams in a shipping container. These were a little more costly then I would have liked but are beast producing mounds of worms.
The also produce tons of this.
We use the castings not only for planting but for making this.
This is very good quality aerated worm tea.
We use the worm tea for spraying on our padlocks, gardens and also for feeding this.
This allows use to grow in the ground gardens, raised beds, hyrdoponics and just about anything we want and all the fertilizer we produce from this...
We do also make our own standard compost which is great to use as a mixture with the castings.
I really like the tumblers for preparing worm food.
If I am hot composting though the jora works well but not as well as this one. The aerobin with the exspansion is a very large flow thru composter and it will keep the temp for hot composting no problem.
As you can see we can process lots of waste and living on a homestead we have lots of waste to process into something that is usable. This makes growing food cheap and sustainable and produces for not only ourselves but also our livestock which in turn produce for us also. It can also help bring in a small income to a homestead so if you have thought about adding composting worms to your homestead now is a great time.
