Thanks Norman – I can definitely see how people get mixed up when they find one of Liz’s videos, search for Big Tex Worms and then end up here, assuming this is the site. And ordering anything online can be hit or miss, so I think we all have our guard up about it. Glad we were able to get everything sorted out for you!

Hi,
After gardening for 25 years in my small raised bed garden in NW Montana, I found your site, and am ecstatic! Our area is a small glacial river valley, which means it is nearly devoid of topsoil – or any soil for that matter! We have big rocks, bigger rocks and a bit of gravel; hence the raised beds. I covet every teaspoon of soil, both good and bad, as I know I can boost it all somehow. I’ve been composting forever, but it is mostly “passive”, by-the-seat-of-the-pants composting. I have wanted to become more proactive about my soil production and worm nurturing. I have a lot of worms, but they are all just good old boys who responded to the “if you build it (a compost bin) they will come” of a gardener. I am interested in vermicomposting and aerobic composting, as I need all the dirt I can get!
Questions:
Can you use compost from an aerobic composter that is not quite complete as worm food? I understand that you don’t want to feed worms fermenting matter, but would nearly composted matter be good or bad?
I am trying to treat all of my raised beds as vermicomposters of a sort. While I want to produce castings and compost for specific application, I kind of want to develop worm “societies” in each bed to further gardening success. Is this a foolish notion? I have been aware of my worms’ value for years, and am now (retired) at liberty to devote more time to better gardening and worm-farming practices.
Thanks!

Hey Rusty,
I am not sure if Liz is monitoring comments on this post. I recommend you follow the “Big Tex Worms” link (in post), and contact Liz via her own website.

Regards

Hello Liz. My wife and I started a little operation last summer and I am constantly trying to find experienced farmers to gain knowledge from. We live in the Lafayette LA. area but we are coming to Dallas to visit my kids. I have to go to Harvest Supply in Fort Worth on Monday March 3rd and wondered if it would be possible to stop in a see your operation. Don’t mind paying for your time. Reards.

How do you keep the galvanized containers cool in the hot Texas sun? I have an indoor bin in Oklahoma and I know how hot it can get there. When it gets to be 100 degrees, that means in the shade! ha

Thanks..

RUBY – worm sales (etc) from the Red Worm Composting website are reserved for U.S. residents unfortunately (since I work with a U.S. supplier). Please visit my Canadian website for info about worm shipments up here:
