What is vermicomposting?
Vermicomposting, sometimes called worm composting, is the final phase of the composting process, where compost is turned into dirt. This dirt is dominated by soil microorganisms as opposed to compost microorganisms. Ordinary compost needs to be digested by the soil before it gives its full benefit, while worm castings are as plant-ready as you can possibly achieve in a composting system.

Which type of worm is best for composting?
Eisenia fetida, or red wigglers, are the hardiest, most preferred species of earthworms for composting purposes. Eisenia fetida are very prolific, thrive at high population densities and have voracious appetites. Acme Worm Farm is proud to offer some of the healthiest, hungriest compost worms.
