"Making the most of your compost'"
Time to get your garden ready for spring!
In British Columbia, and today’s urban setting of smaller family homes and condos, most people think composting is only for those with vast backyards and farms. Not true, composting can be done by everyone from single family homes with their flower beds and raised vegetable plots to the urban condo owners with their wonderful small space and balcony gardens. Composting with worms is a great way to turn your household food scraps into a rich natural soil supplement for all of your indoor and outdoor gardening needs.
No yard? No problem!Urban settings, like apartment and condos in BC are great places to compost with worms. Worm bins can be compact and are perfect for small spaces. Use the casting on your indoor/outdoor plants, or community garden.

Worm compost bins can be placed anywhere, inside or outside and can be made from a variety of material. Worm bins can be made from rain barrels and tucked into a shady garden spot in the summer or placed in a decorative wooden box under your kitchen sink. Worm bins can be small, just big enough for two, or large enough to handle a classroom full of kids!

Why compost?
Today all around us is the message to make environmentally conscious choices, choosing to compost just makes sense. One third of household rubbish is food or garden waste and most of this ends up in the landfill. By composting you can help reduce your household and business waste significantly and at the same time reap the benefits of rich organic compost. Using composting worms not only increases the rate in which organics are composted but the custom sized worm bins are a great solution for those in condos and apartments with limited space or gardeners who want to collect the castings for their own or community gardens. Green is good!
