Why would someone want to put a device in their backyard that “manufactures” worms?
Actually, red worms are highly beneficial for home gardeners. That’s because they feed on decaying plant matter, so they help to quickly break down your compost pile. Also, their waste, known as “worm castings,” is highly nutritious, much more so than regular compost.

However, it’s not always easy to manage hundreds of red worms, which is where the Worm Factory 360 comes in. These stackable trays eliminate the need for you to manually move worms from one place to another. When they eat their way through one compost tray, they ascend to the next.
The base of the tray contains a spigot, so you can collect liquid compost, to fertilize your garden. The tray on the bottom collects the nutrient-dense worm castings.
- This system comes with four trays, although it’s possible to use as many as eight.
- The Worm Farm comes with an instructional DVD.
- This is a very low-maintenance system.
- It can also be used by people who don’t garden, but want an environmentally friendly way to recycle their waste.
- This can also be ordered in green and terra cotta, in addition to black.
- Turning table scraps into compost can take up to two years. Worms make this process happen faster.
