RyanIsHungry's video: Vermicomposting: Born Again Worm Bin

We were saddened by the death of our first worm bin because of some imbalance of moisture, acidity or bad paper products. We're super determined to continue the worm composting process with a homemade bin. We took the tray from our old bin (a big kitty litter pan) and gathered some scrap wood from our communal backyard at the San Mateo Eco-Village and got the process going again. The basic set up for a healthy, homemade bin is plenty of ventilation, damp paper bedding, food scraps, green plant stuffs, red wiggler worms and some shredded dry paper topping. We'll keep monitoring our bin to see how it's going and hopefully, cross your fingers, our worms survive and make us rich worm castings for our plants. If you make your own bin, let us know how it's going and what your secrets are! Music: Santigo (Stuttering Breaks Mix) by DJ Rkod
