Topic: worm compost bin

[Drive-by abuser]

Hi all,

Dont want to spend nearlly £100 on a worm compost bin, was thinking of making my own (how do you make your own) or does anyone have one to sell, thought this maybe a good way of getting my kids involved in gardening/environment?

thanks

Yes, yes, yes .... YES

Use the link that  DorisPink suggests - I made one of those last year and it works just fine - got my plastic holders from the Wilkinson (?) for next to nothing (you don't need to get lids with every tub - just one lid will do - save a few bob).

In one season I have managed to get a full container of wormcasts and about 10L of juice - don't know what the fuss is about 'cos it tastes disgusting!

LOL Bionic!! Errrrr  still haven't got around to making mine, lets see, one box has compost in it, another decorating stuff...etc!!  Must sort it this year!

Doris you have come up trumps again, you have a hive of information, I am going to give the wormery ago too when I have got my lottie near sorted, I spotted four bins at Asda today at .98p each and snapped them up for starters. ;D :-*

Thanks to all for the advice, with the money saved I think I might get drunk this weekend.
Cheers ;)
