Community Help & Be Helped
Worm Farming Revealed's Community Help is here!
Have you ever wanted help with your worm farm? Have you ever wanted to help others maintain a successful worm system? The WFR community is ever growing and we are here to see you succeed.
The "Community-Help-&-Be-Helped"
is what I like to call it. Here, you can ask any question about worm
farming, worm poop, even worm gardening tips or help someone figure out
that puzzling problem that's been bugging them for months.
Write Your Community Question or Comment Below
No Question is Stupid.
The only stupid question is the one you don't ask. I wished I had this when I first started my worm system. I was very excited and...Well, long story short they all died.
Anyway, no topic is off-topic. We want to know about worm poop, worm tea, worm systems, foods for worms, types of worms, worm products, composting methods, worm pests, etc.
This is your community and we need you, I need you, and you need us. Because no one of us has got it all together but all of us together got it ALL.
Each question and comment will be your own special page that others can chime in on. So help me build this Q&A with your knowledge and experience and again, Welcome :)
Please answer any questions below or ask your own!
