This is a great primer to worm composting so thank you to whoever created this and made it available as a free pdf download. This newbie greatly appreciated that and the fact that it covers everything I need to know to get started and for writing it in an easy to understand format. This is going to be my guide to start my own worm bin for plant care needs. I am going completely organic and this is going to really help with that. This is a good resource for anyone looking to start so I'd recommend downloading this.
