GET KIDS EXCITED ABOUT WORM FARMING!

Hello my distinguished colleagues, worm scholars, fellow educators, and worm farming enthusiasts of the community. Many of you know I've been working on some material for kids to instill a desire (and love) to return to the land our generation has seemed to have left behind.

This is why I came back to the roots I learned as a child, and became the "Prodigal Son" so-to-speak. Even if kids DO stray from the things they're taught, when they're older, it will always be in their minds in some form. If they don't ever act out upon it then they may support or be sympathetic in some manner. I think that's a good thing  :)

Remember in another issue I said that I'd be revealing some people in the worm farming industry that I've personally vetted? They know there worm stuff.

There's a LOT of information online. If you're savvy enough and can devote a great deal of time to slogging through and separating fact from "hype" then go for it. Some people just don't have that luxury or aren't educated enough (yet). One needs to filter out those who are only trying to sell you information (or even the wrong product) vs someone who actually wants to help you and see you succeed. This is one of the reasons why I wrote The Worm Farming Revolution.

So let's meet an organic gardener, worm tea brewer, soil healer, soil teacher, worm educator, mentor, recycler, entrepreneur, and yes...worm farmer :)  Plus a lot more.

When it comes to making worm tea (Heather calls it her "worm wine"), creating worm castings, growing composting worms etc. she gets it. She understands the way that microorganisms and macroorganisms interact with each other in order to have that symbiotic relationship within the soil food web.

This is extremely important when owning a business and selling to customers who TRUST that your product will do what you say it will. This is why Heather's castings are tested by a dependable laboratory. Not many castings producers give you that kind of assurance.

Heather also holds vermicomposting & vermigardening workshops. How she pencils it all in, I do not know. I could say a lot more about Heather but I'm not quite ready to reinvent the "vermiwheel". Thankfully my friend, Steve Churchill, (another great WFR patriot) has quite an extensive interview with her, among others.
