The Worm Inn - Continuous Flow Vermicomposting System

The Worm Inn

I am very excited to be able to offer this great new vermicomposting system. Inspired by my ‘Creepy Pants Vermicomposter‘, Robyn Crispe decided to put her sewing talents and creativity to the test in an effort to create a stylish, but still effective, continuous-flow (aka ‘flow-through) system. She certainly succeeded.

The Worm Inn is made of durable, yet breathable, cordura fabric and offers a number of handy features for the passionate vermicomposter. I really appreciate the addition of a pocket (great for holding various worm bin tools) on the side since I am constantly misplacing my hand rake, spray bottles etc. The Inn also features a handy drawstring opening/tightening system at the bottom, to make vermicompost harvesting a breeze.

Given the excellent breathability of this system, you can be sure you won’t be producing anaerobic muck in the bottom unlike most plastic worm bins. High quality castings will be deposited and left behind as the worms continue to move upwards towards the freshest deposits of food. Once the initial material (food and bedding) has been converted to vermicompost (a mixture of castings and other materials that have not passed through a worm), you will be able to continue harvesting on a ongoing basis, as long as you continue to add new waste materials above.

The Worm Inn is currently available in three attractive designs (with more likely on the way). We also have some options for those interested in ordering a Worm Inn with worms. Just so you know, the system will be sent separately (before) the worms, giving you a chance to get it set up before your wigglers arrive.

If you DO plan to buy worms with the system, please make sure you have read my ‘Fine Print’ & ‘Additional Info’ sections before ordering.

*** All prices below INCLUDE shipping to anywhere in continental U.S.A. Again, if you chose to order a Worm Inn with worms you will receive two separate packages (the Worm Inn will arrive before the worms).***
*** We may offer larger worm quantities in future, but until we test the system (with 3 lb+ worms) ourselves, we can only recommend 1-2 lb ***

Hey Laurel - here are some specs for you:
It is approximately 25″ from top to bottom, 27″ from the top of the loops. The top opening is 15″ by 15″. The bag narrows at the bottom and the whole bag is approximately 2 cubic feet. In other words, it is definitely bigger than it looks in the pics.
To see the Inn with a person (for perspective), check out this post:

Thanks for sharing your thoughts - an FAQ page is a good idea.

While using the Worm Inn, do you need to place a tray on the floor to collect the vermin tea(juice)?

Hi Rosy - sorry for the delay.
You can certainly put a tray underneath just to be safe, but based on my experience, with normal feeding and watering there will be no risk of needing this. I work harder to keep the contents moist than I do coping with excess moisture - that’s for sure.
