Off to the Bay…

I can't tell you what to do, and frankly I don't want to. But I can assure you it's fun to compost and that you should give it a shot. Don't you miss trying out science experiments?

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QFCW2X9OZ8 Woohoo! I just made a new worm bin. I'm going to go ahead and call it a "Bentley Bin", which I named after Bentley Christie of http://www.redwormcomposting.com . He's the true master of vermicomposting, and I highly recommend checking him out to learn everything there is to know about worms. Hit the Like button for the video and leave a comment for me! I'll be posting updates once I get my worms, which should be in about a week.
