My girls have a fascination with wiggly worms. When I’m gardening they regularly get a bucket and collect a few for closer inspection. For worm lovers and also for those who need a bit of convincing a wormery is a perfect environmental project.
It will recycle all of your fruit and vegetable kitchen waste into great soil conditioner for the garden, and a handy liquid fertiliser, which my children like to call worm juice. Rich in nutrients, I have to say that our worm juice gave what can only be described as spectacular results in our school garden this year!
The Waste Buster wormeries designed and hand-made by the Recycleworks Ltd are designed to last. Made from FSC wood they need only a little maintenance and can be kept indoors or outdoors if protected from extremes in temperature.
The children will eagerly collect up peelings and scraps and take them to the wormery each day….a great hands on lesson in recycling. And the educational wormery with its great viewing window allows easy viewing of the activity going on inside, which children find completely fascinating.
