  • Hi Chris--thank u for ur rapid response I just rec'd. Because I am a confirmed "clinical" gardening addict and have a strong curiousity for most anything interesting & fascinating, I know I am likely going 2 add vermicomposting at some point. Because I "now" know they are "so easy to raise and CUTE" as you stated, I may have to get on board sooner ! LOL ! I love it...:)
    I will give it some serious thought in coming months but now much of my free pre-spring time is consumed getting new experimental plants in the ground ! Thanks again !
  • Chris--I may take up vermicomposting this year--I used to actually buy a good quality, reasoanbly priced vermicompost from a lady on the west side (although I live in E. valley--Tempe) who is now retired. I still have a fair amont left but may be interested in: a) a source for the compost b) a source for red wigglers or worms if I actaully take vermicomposting up this year. Please retain my info & I will retain yours. Thanks ! :)
  • Chris, that is wonderful! You live nearby too, so even better. I'll call you a bit later this morning. Cheryl
  • Chris, your name was suggested at the last vermicomposting class as a potential resource to purchase some worms. Do you have some to spare? I have my wine box bin prepared and ready to house some happy and hungry worms. Many thanks, Cheryl
  • Hi chris, I wanted to see if I could buy some worms for my High school classrooms soon to be worm farm. I think I will have everything ready in about 2 weeks. If you think you'll have some around that time, I'll let you know when I can come by. Thanks!
  • Chris - I'm not for sure if I am going to go to the vermicomposting class or not as I have a flight to Michigan leaving that night. I'm not even really sure I want to "vermicompost" as I have 2 compost bins already in the backyard. It is just something that I may look into. I will let know if I need any worms though.
  • Hi Chris - glad you were able to get onto the site. I also got the newsletter you mentioned & have looked a little on the site...definately added it to my favorites.

    Hmmm...Odd. Maybe try it like above...without the /moodle/

  • I am actually hoping to be there....I work in Tempe,,,but the MC Extension Office isn't too far from my office....I'll look for ya. ;^)

"Hi, somehow I missed the note you sent me months ago. So sorry, if you still need worms I have a lot of them now, they seem to have been multiplying nicely. Chris"

"I compost too but the worms give you the best fertilizer. I keep mine in plastic boxes in my laundry room, when the weather is nicer I can put them out in the garage. You can start with a plastic shoe box and move up to a larger size later. Once a…"

"Thanks for the tip but I tried it exactly and no luck. Here is what I am trying is there supposed to be a space somewhere or something I am missing?

"Hi, I tried to go to the website for the class today and I could not find it although I am sure I wrote it down right, then again maybe not. Please tell me what you typed in to get there as I give up! Chris"

"I am glad they are okay and they should multiply and give you some good fertilizer soon. Kids do like them, I think worms have a lot of personality. They make a great class project if you have a teacher willing to have them in the classroom. The…"
