The Worm Works Multi-Tray System wormery is an innovative design in
worm composting. An
unusual
and fascinating take on recycling, this product easily
turns your organic waste into something valuable –
worm compost. It is
a must have item for anyone looking for a simple and odourless way to
recycle food waste.
The clever design of the Worm Works allows the trays to rest on the
compost and not on each other, so as the worms eat through the waste,
the compost compacts down.
Easily convert organic waste into useful garden feed
With
an interesting design that resembles a bee hive, The Worm Works
Multi-Tray System has an option of 3 or 4 composting trays. It is very
simple to use and
gives easy access to the valuable compost without making a mess. Once
the top tray
is full, the bottom tray should be ready to harvest both a quality
compost
and a
nutritious liquid
feed that can be used on plants both indoor and out,
including both your vegetable patch and lawn.
Why a Wormery?
Wormeries are
incredibly
simple and
natural waste converters that take cooked and uncooked food waste,
shredded newspaper, cardboard, tea bags and egg cartons (or other
similar items) and divert them away from the bin. In the UK we
send nearly 7 million tonnes of food waste or peelings to landfill! So
do your bit to cut
this volume down in an interesting way.
A simple and clean way of producing your own compost
Using the Worm Works Multi-Tray System is an almost
odourless process as
the worms eat the waste right away rather than letting it decompose. If
you do smell something from your wormery it is most likely to be a
healthy composty smell that is a sign you are on your way to making a
beautiful compost and
a liquid feed (sometimes referred to as 'Black Gold'). It takes only a
couple of weeks to compost a whole handful of waste and over a year you
can fill and harvest one whole bin of nutritious compost by collecting
from each tray more frequently. The
liquid feed that settles at the bottom of the Worm Works can be
collected on average every 3 or 4 weeks.
Benefits for you, your garden and the globe
Not only does the Worm Works
cut down on landfill waste
(in turn reducing methane levels in the air which lead to global
warming) but helpfully slims down your bin contents and means you are
less likely to create a polluting bonfire either. For your garden,
the Worm Works provides nutrients that mean you can water less
and
replaces the use of
chemical fertilisers and pesticides. In addition the worm
compost also increases the rate of growth and the overall health of
your plants.
Made
from recycled materials, the Worm Works includes an integrated stand,
drainage tray, 'easy-twist' tap, matching lid and handle.
It's simple to get started because
the Worm Works also comes with an illustrated instruction guide and
everything else you could need to
get
started such as: Coir brick, shredded paper, anti-acid
lime mix and even the worms (Baby Tiger Worms).
Perfect for any garden
the Worm Works is available in two sizes and also in two
colours, Black or Terracotta.
