Composting and the Worm Factory®

Worm composting is an incredibly efficient to convert kitchen scraps, junk mail and cardboard into nutrient-rich compost for your garden. Master gardeners agree that compost produced by worms will produce the best results and help your plants thrive!

The Worm Factory's® unique stackable, multi-tray design makes it the most efficient composter around. Worms begin eating waste in the lowest tray, and then migrate upward as food sources in that tray are exhausted. By allowing worms to migrate upward, the worms separate themselves from the finished compost that is ready for the garden.

Besides the worm castings that are produced through this process, the Worm Factory® also produces a second type of compost. As waste is broken down, moisture filters through your composter, dragging nutrient-rich particles with it. This liquid fertilizer, know as "worm tea" is gathered in the special collection tray of the Worm Factory® and can easily drained from the spigot.
