Vermicompost or Worm Composting
Vermicomposting is a composting method using worms usually red wigglers to break down your kichen food scraps. I use a worm bin called the Worm Factory that uses a self sorting upward migration. The bin is filled with coco fiber, food scraps and paper fiber. The worms consume the scraps and leave behind castings. The bin also has a nozzle to collect the compost tea. This produces micro organism rich soil that is perfect for your garden. It also saves landfill space. I will post video of my setup so you can see how wonderful vermicomposting is.
