Worm Castings from Acme Worm Farm:

Our Worm Castings are non-toxic in any concentration to plants and animals, to the soil, and to the environment. Much of the synthetic nutrients of chemical fertilizers are not only lost into the soil, but also destroy much of the soil’s beneficial microbial and bacterial activity. At the same time, many of these synthetic nutrients are absorbed into our plants and food supply. Chemical fertilizers and pesticides have become our country’s leading cause of water pollution!

Also, the humus in Worm Castings extract toxins and fungi from the soil, giving them the ability to "fight off" plant diseases. Worm Castings will retain 3 to 4 times their own weight in water, and therefore increase the ability of the soil to retain water. Since Worm Castings are all natural, their benefits are "time-released". Most potting soils have a nutrient life of 2 to 5 days, whereas Worm Castings will last up to 6 times as long.

Our Worm Castings are shipped to you with use and application instructions, in "re-sealable" bags of 5 lbs., 10 lbs., or 20 lbs.

Coconut Coir Blocks:

Our Coconut Pith Fiber comes from Sri Lanka, where they soak their coir in fresh water reservoirs to insure low salt levels. It’s of the highest quality available. Coir is superior to peat moss in many aspects. Coir has antibiotic properties against pathogens, is loaded with natural growth hormones, soaks up more water than peat moss, soaks it up quicker, and holds it longer.  Potting soils made with coir do not require a wetting agent.  Using coir in place of peat moss also means less strip mining of bogs. These blocks are compressed 5:1.  Each block yields 2-1/2 cubic feet.  Put one in a wheelbarrow with five gallons of warm water, and watch it grow to full size in about an hour (or two hours with cold water). Coir also make great worm bedding when mixed half and half with compost or aged manure.

The 45" long Compost Crank makes the job of turning and aerating your compost pile, quick and effortless. Just crank the beveled spiral tip in and pull the Compost Crank out.
