would have the best, most informative videos on the web.

Hi Christy,
First I want to thank you for a great site. I really enjoyed your
e-course as well. Was able to get a lot of helpful information.
Particularly the videos. I have only been vermicomposting since Sept.
And am just about ready to harvest my first batch of castings. Recently
joined vermicomposters.com Anyway just added some photos of my worm farm to
share. So thanks again. Will continue to enjoy your site.

Thank you so
much for posting videos about worm bins. Your videos are great and I've
learned a lot from them.

Christy,
Thanks I hope that you don't mind but I belong to The Garden Forums website
and there are folks on there that have not heard of you and your love of
worms. I told them that I decided to buy from you because of a video I seen
of you harvesting worms by hand.

Christy,
Did I tell you the worms arrived in good shape and seem to be happy eating
my kitchen scraps?

Hello
Christy,
I received the Worm Factory yesterday on time and in good shape.
I am looking forward to transferring my “herd” from my single-storey bin to
the new multi-level one.
Thank you for the quick service and excellent videos on the web.
Roy R.
Factory is all set up - so once
you have a batch acclimated and ready I am ready for them. Your videos are
warm and wonderful, full of worm love.

My Lanzones
(Lansium domesticum) that has been sitting on my frontyard without any signs
of fruiting for many years, all of a sudden fruited this year after just 2
or 3 months on vermitea and vermicast.

Hi Christy, I wanted to tell you
how much I enjoyed your pod casts. I just found them by accident. I been
trying to figure this worm thing out for awhile. You did a good job of doing
that. Also, your pod casts were so friendly. I sort of felt like I was
sitting across the table from you.
I can't wait to get the worm tower and get started. Keep up the good
work Christy! your a special person!

Hi Christy.
The worms arrived today! I even saw one of the babies when I was looking in
my bin. I couldn't believe how tiny it was. :)
I live in an apartment building so the manager brought the package to my air
conditioned apartment so they were just fine. Although I wonder what she
thought of this box labeled "LIVE WORMS". :)
Thanks again!
Carla
Hi Christy,
Just to let you know I received the 2 lbs. of red worms Thursday, June 5th,
2008. I received them in very good condition and am very happy with them.
I'm using horse manure and they seem to be comfortable with that. I don't
know how long it will take for the castings to appear, or when to harvest as
of yet, but I'm sure that as I keep a close eye on things I will find out.
Thank you very much for such a wonderful product.
Best Regards,
Dave
Received worms yesterday and
they’re real healthy.
Thanks,
Michael
My worms arrived today and they
are in good condition.
Thank you,
Amy
Yes, they arrived on Friday and
they're great. Moving around and eating our veggie and fruit scraps already.
Thank you!
Liz
Christy,
I did receive the worms today and did not see any that were not alive. I
have transferred them to a 10 gallon tub that I modified with holes,
according to the directions. They are all moving and seem to be "happy".
Thank you,
Cathy
The worms arrived alive and
well, and are fast finding a new home.
Jack
Hi Christy.
Worms safely arrived yesterday P.M. While I've no experience or much
knowledge about worms, I'd say they were fat and happy. They've been
enthroned in nice new digs...with much to feast on to welcome their arrival.
Thanks Again. Larry D
Hi Christy,
Just wanted to let you know that we received our worms and they all looked
fat and happy .....even the lil' babies!!
"Teaming With Microbes: A Gardener's Guide to the
Soil Food Web"
Sometimes scientists can talk over
the layman's head and not even realize that the message is not being
conveyed. This book is written in a very understandable language,
that even a simple worm farmer like myself could understand and relate
to. A must read for anyone who wants to learn more about the life
producing your food.
Smart gardeners understand that soil is alive and what
is in the soil is what supports plant life. Healthy soil is
exploding with life - beyond the worms and insects we can see with the
naked eye - there are a multitude of bacteria, fungi, and other
microbial forms of life vital to the soil food web that sustains healthy
plant life. Resorting to chemicals destroys this delicate balance
and results in an unhealthy situation for the soil, the plants, and the
environment. You can't destroy this balance and not have an affect
on the people, the children, family and friends. As gardeners,
farmers, and inhabitants of the Earth we have an obligation to the next
generation to leave behind a healthy soil. Venture beyond your
current understanding that good soil grows healthy plants and understand
why...This book available now from Amazon.com by clicking on the buy

Organic Landscape Alliance
In response to the
increasing need for information about organic landscaping and lawn
care practices, the Organic Landscape Alliance (OLA) has launched
its new website, providing the public with a credible source of
industry information. The non-profit trade organization’s website
www.organiclandscape.org
includes fact sheets on organic lawn care and landscaping...
Atlantic Canadian Organic Regional Network (ACORN)
Atlantic Canadian
Organic Regional Network (ACORN) has created a new on-line
“gardener’s tool.” The Grower’s Database is a free website that
lists the top 100 pests and weeds. Within the database, are pictures
of the various growth stages to help with identification, as well as
information on the life and growth cycle, damage caused, prevention
options and treatments – all without the use of chemical pesticides
and herbicides. The pest and weed database is free for anyone to
use. Just go to
www.acornorganic.org and select “Grower’s Database.”
Plans are in the works for a series of videos that would take you from start
to finish (so to speak) of how to have your own worm bin composting project.
Once the set-up process was complete the series will continue with the
maintenance of the bin including feeding and harvesting worms and castings.
If you would like to be notified of the release of these videos please fill
out the form below. As always your information is safe with me.
