Vermicompost

Since Dora graduated from her program this winter she's been keeping busy with numerous side projects. One of which is her new blog that is all about cooking on a day to day basis but updating parts of the recipes here and there to make them slightly healthier and still altogether delicious. To read her Realistically Healthy Home Cooking blog, click the link. Her other current project is vermicomposting. It's a technique where you use red worms to compost kitchen scraps like egg shells, fruit peels, coffee grinds, etc. It helps a lot in reducing what you're throwing away on a week by week basis. Even though fruits and vegetables decompose quickly when thrown away in a trash bag it's not going to do much until the actual bag decomposes too. So here are some photos of these things and if you would like any info on getting started with composting message Dora:
