Worm Inn MEGA Review

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FpWnZP0YDbU The Worm Inn MEGA is the latest improvement on the original Worm Inn system. With this system you can turn huge quantities of organic materials into worm castings fairly quickly, without the hassle.

My advice for you bikers out there, is to have someone drive you so you can pick up the 10' long pipes, or take a hacksaw and tape measure with you and cut the pieces on your own outside the building.  I, of course, did neither so…
