This best-selling guide to the practice of vermicomposting teaches people how to use worms to recycle food waste into nutrient-rich fertilizer for houseplants or gardens.

Small-scale, self-contained worm bins can be kept indoors, in a basement, or even under the kitchen sink in an apartment — making vermicomposting a great option for city dwellers and anyone who doesn’t want or can’t have an outdoor compost pile. This fully revised edition features the original’s same friendly tone, with up-to-date information on the entire process, including:

  • Building or purchasing a bin (readily available at garden supply stores)
  • How to feed and maintain the worms
  • Harvesting the finished compost


You’ll find annotated references to related readings, a glossary of terms for quick look-up, and a sample record sheet to keep track of your setup. Start vermicomposting today and watch the worms get to work!
