Worm Composting
What is Worm Composting? Worm composting involves using worms to turn food scraps, newspapers, and cardboard into a rich compost, which can be added to potted plants, lawns or gardens. It is convenient, and you can do it indoors (even in apartments) or outdoors. Some people who make leaf compost in their backyards also use worms to compost their food scraps and paper.
