The growing popularity of vermicomposting has cast the lowly earthworm in a new light.
Vermicomposting refers to the process of using earthworms to turn organic waste into vermicompost — also known as vermicast, worm compost, worm castings, worm humus or worm manure — a high quality natural fertilizer and soil conditioner.
In a nutshell, worm composting is a process for recycling food waste into a rich, dark, earth-smelling soil conditioner.
