Worm Bin

It may only be February but Evie and I are already planning our garden. One of my goals this year is to go as urban homestead as I can. By doing a worm bin, it turns our waste into rich fertilizer for the garden. Plus as they make more worms I can put some out in the garden as well.

Today, we went out and got our supplies. It was a pretty easy project. You can follow along below to make your own!

YOU’LL NEED:

• Red worms
• 1 10 gallon Rubbermaid totes
• Power Drill
• Newspaper, cardboard & Dirt

Step 1: I drilled some holes up top, for air flow.

Step 2: Shred up paper. Then make sure to mist the paper, but you don't want to make it too wet.

Step 3: Put in your dirt, give that some mist. Then we chopped up some apple and added that. Then I poked some holes in the cardboard to lay that on top. I misted the cardboard too. It just helps keep their dirt and bedding moist Then add your worms.
