Free worms–well, almost free worms

August 30th, 2010

Via the Fort Collins worm exchange list, I came across this offer from John Anderson, the Colorado Worm Man (whose website is currently down).

My offer still stands for those who would like to exchange 3hrs work at my worm farm for a starter batch of worms and what ever knowledge you can absorb from my experience.

Now, on the one hand, 3 hours of your time, especially if you need to drive to Fort Collins from elsewhere, can be more expensive than just buying the worms yourself. But, on the other hand, you get the chance to ask John questions, see how a large scale operation works, and head home with a batch of worms for your self. When I toured his worm farm a year ago, it was quite eye opening.

If you’re thinking about keeping worms and have some time, and if Fort Collins isn’t too far away, you should contact John (cowormman at Juno dot com) and see about setting up a three hour learning experience.
