Description
The Can-O-WormsTM worm farm lets us transform kitchen wastes in a rich vermicompost suitable for plants, and this, all year round. Attractive and odorless, this system ensures a rapid decompostion.
It is easy to collect vermicompost (worm castings) thanks to the three working trays that let the worms crawl freely from one tray to the other. A very high quality liquid fertilizer can be recovered from a faucet at the base and can be used to water plants.
The Can-O-WormsTM worm farm is made from 100% recycled plastic
- Produces a high quality solid (worm castings) and liquid fertilizers
- Reduces waste production and by the same token, your ecological footprint
- Lets you obtain vermicompost after only 3 to 4 months
- Attractive and easy to use
