Composting

I've really want to get on the composting wagon, I know I'm several years behind the trend. But hey, better late than never! What really inspired me was this gorgeous looking compost. Who knew rotting food could look so aesthetically pleasing?!


 

If properly managed, the Worm Factory is supposed to be virtually odorless to allow for use on a balcony or porch.The Worm Factory houses eight to twelve thousand worms that consume 5-8lbs of food per week, and is expandable up to 7 trays. Each 16" x 16" tray weighs only 12.5lbs when full, making them easy for most users to handle. (Originally posted at Apartment Therapy)

I love the idea of composting, but 12,000 worms is quite a lot to have on my porch, ha :)

I do too. I mean, at least they wouldn't have to be crawling around in your house like a pet :)
