I really get into composting, so when given the opportunity to get a composting bin and start red worm composting, I was psyched. Normal composting is fun, but when you add willing worm workers into the mix, it makes it even more fun. The Worm Factory is a worm compost bin that will allow you a way to break down your food scraps and create super-rich worm castings and organic compost which will make your garden go crazy.
With worms doing the work, I can enjoy the green composting project a lot more and see the neat work they do. It’s also a kind of citizen science project that is informative and allows me to contribute to the green movement with a simple system. The Worm Factory is a good tool that helps me do all these things.
Worm Factory Review – What is it
The Worm Factory is an upright, red worm composting bin with removable trays that are stackable. You fill your bottom tray up with shredded newspaper and kitchen scraps, load it on the 4-legged base, add your worms and your lid and you’re in the worm business. It’s really easy.
The Worm factory also has a siphon system and spigot that allows you to drain off any liquid that leaches off the compost (and you will have a lot draining off).
Worm Factory Review – What I Like
I like the fact that the Worm Factory comes with everything you need to start the red worm composting project. When I first started I built my own bins and you have to gather all the materials. The Worm Factory comes with everything you need (bedding, scrapper, thermometer); the only thing you have to get seperately is the worms.
Going along with the fact that it comes with everything, is the informative material they include to start your project. Between the DVD and the instructional manual, it’s simple to get started. It sure beats having to dig up all the info on your own.
I really like the look of the Worm Factory. It is designed to be efficient, but it also looks neat.
Another thing that I think is a real benefit is the Worm Factory‘s convenience and ease. You take the lid off and feed the worms when you have scraps. When the tray is full, add another tray with more scraps and the worms move upward to the feast. Simple. When it comes to something you are going to be doing every day, the simpler the better.
Worm Factory Review – What I Didn’t Like
When it comes to composting, my wife and I generate a lot of scraps from meals, so the Worm factory tends to fill up fast. If you don’t have an alternative composting system, like we do then you will get a backlog of kitchen scraps quick. The worms take time breaking down the kitchen scraps to organic compost. I have other composting systems, so you might want two of these Worm Factories or just get another composting system going, like a tumbling composter or some other alternative.
The worms can get out. This is not a negative particular to the Worm Factory, but with any red worm composting system—even ones I have made on my own. If you keep a light on in the area you keep your bin, it will act as a deterrent to fleeing worms.
Worm Factory Review – Overall Thoughts
Raising worms to eat my garbage is a blast. With the Worm Factory it makes it so easy and efficient to be an eco-conscious eater and really good gardener, too—between the worm castings and worm tea.
Red worm composting has been a fun project for me, it would also be an engaging project for kids—all kids love creepy crawlies. Fun is one thing, but when something can be fun and easy, I am all for it. The Worm Factory allows me to do something that is important—saving the earth through composting—in a super simple way.
