Earthworm Farming - "Worm Farming" review

Reviewed by: Tyler Brown 5 starsEarthworm Farming worm farming review

Honestly, the idea of earthworm farming as a career choice or even as a hobby had never occurred to me. I only stumbled upon the "Worm Farming" eBook because I was researching additional ways of incorporating green living into my and my family's lifestyle. The idea of an earthworm farm sounded intriguing and I knew my twin 9 year old boys would love it. Since the product was so affordable and came with a 60 day guarantee, I purchased it that very day.

Thankfully, for those who have absolutely no idea of what it means to start earthworm farming, this eBook is geared towards beginners. I was surprised to find out that most of the tools needed to start an earthworm farm where already in my household. With the addition of worms, I had a very small start up cost.

The section on the worm farm design helped us actually get set up in a few hours after purchasing the supplies we needed. Instructions were easy to follow and detailed enough that beginners feel comfortable with setting up the worm bins, checking the soil's moisture level and giving worms the proper food.

I followed the suggestions in the eBook and started out with red worms, the guided section on creating a vermicompost bin worked great. The kids and I added mainly fruit and vegetables as was recommended and it was fantastic to not be assaulted with smells of rotting fruits and vegetables every time we came into the kitchen. I think the eBook would have been even better if it had provided a detailed listing of what to feed the worms. However, the section on which food items to avoid completely was superbly written and really cleared up the issue for us.

I really liked how the earthworm farming eBook emphasized green living. After starting our worm farm we were so surprised at how much we were able to reduce our weekly trash output. Saving on compost and fertilizer also left us with extra money that we could put towards our family.

As our production of worms increased into the thousands, the information in the eBook really explained what to look for to make sure the worms were getting enough to eat and how to use the organic fertilizer they created. We also created additional worm farms and used different types of worms. I couldn't believe how much bigger and healthier looking the food in our garden looked after using worm compost from our very own earthworm farming efforts. It was also great to know that our food had been raised chemical free.

Though this isn't a complaint, I was actually surprised that the eBook didn't include more information on the types of businesses that one might create after starting a worm farm. However, it did provide just enough on this subject to get me motivated to turn this into a profitable way of earning extra income.

In our country town, fishing is extremely popular; we started offering fresh earthworms to local fisherman and retail bait sellers. The eBook was great with showing how to effectively create a marketing campaign. I was so surprised at how well marketing through the newspaper and setting up a booth at the local farmers market worked to get information on our family owned worm business out to potential customers.

I also want to say that my twin boys immediately started having fun with the project. They liked it so much they created an earthworm farm for their 4th grade science project. Since we started earthworm farming, it has been so much easier to get them interested in green living and earth science. I am also glad to say their grades have really improved too!
