Hi Annie’s Granny, I will be sure to pull together a more indepth post on my worm bin then! :) It might have to be a two parter though as I am sure I can say a lot about them! -Cynthia

Will be visiting Portland in the next few weeks - never been & can hardly wait to see all the gardens. Can you keep your worms outside all year long? Our vermicomposting requires an indoor spot because of the cold. <em>Hi Barbara! Thanks for visiting my blog. :) I *believe* you can keep the worms outdoors all year here but I bring the bin into my garage come winter as I feel better safe than sorry. Enjoy your visit to Portland as there are lots of beautiful gardens here! -Cynthia </em> Cynthia – when I was filling in my name thought maybe I should be supplying passport # – what a fun blog & great photos.

I read somewhere that it is possible to vermicompost in the space underneath a kitchen sink. I think I might try that, as it would be a convenient to just toss my food scraps into the vermicompost bin, and as someone who lives in an apartment, it's not like I have tons of other places to chose from! <em>Hi Fern, thanks for visiting my site! :) I have heard of people doing this too and as good of an idea as it sounds I have always been a little unsure of it. The worm bins can draw some types of insects (gnats, etc.) and that would make me a little leary of keeping one indoors. It would be very convient though as I get tired of lugging the kitchen scraps out to the worm bin and compost pile! -Cynthia</em> Everywhere I go, I hear about people vermicomposting.
