Casie likes the new vermicomposter and the worms -- all of whom are named "Stan" -- seem to be happy (and multiplying).
These are red-wigglers -- the best for vermicomposting. They'll eat anything that was once living -- paper, coffee grounds, veggies, flowers, sawdust... some even say a telephone book... and the worm-poop is good for the garden.
Previously, we had a single black bin, but we got this one at the local Elephant Pharmacy and gave the old one (and 1/2 the worms... of 1/2 the Stans) to our neighbors Kyle and Sarah. If an adult is having this much fun, some 4th graders would be lovin' it for sure. Locally, you can get your worms from "the worm dude" (search for it on Craigslist -- he travels from farmers market to market) or you can find them online...
