My new vermi-friend, Austin Smith, sent me this video showing a nice simple approach to setting up a “worm tower” using a small bucket. I would probably go with a 5 gal pail, personally – but either way, it will be a lot more manageable for the average person than my “Vermi-Fertilization System” (which gets pretty heavy once full), yet much better for vermicomposting than a typical worm tower.

I really like Austin’s PVC insect netting cover as well!
