Description

The Worm Factory® 4-Tray Recycled Plastic Worm Composter - Black is like a capsule hotel in Tokyo … except the guests are 6,000 worms and it goes in your backyard.
Made from 100% recycled plastic, this composter allows worms to happily nosh 24/7 on your kitchen waste and whatnot, providing you rich organic material. Odorless, well-organized, green … and best of all, the worms will eat your junk mail. Or bills.

 

 

What is The Worm Factory® and how does it work?
Unique and ingenious, the Worm Factory® is composter comprised of stacking trays in which worms eat your scraps and leave behind rich organic material. Fill each tray with scraps like vegetables, fruits, egg shells, coffee grounds, paper, and junk mail, and in turn you'll get nutrient-rich compost for your garden. Worm castings are known to be the very best compost available. Your plants will thrive with this all-natural compost. Worms start in the bottom tray and work upward as they break down the waste. The worms leave behind the stuff, and you don't even have to sort through the wiggly friends at all, as they're already on the next tray up. Plus nutrient-rich moisture is captured in the collection tray and can be used as liquid fertilizer known as "worm tea."

 

What are the benefits of using The Worm Factory®?

 

  • It's Compact:
    It stacks instead of spreading out, so if you're short on space, no worries. The Worm Factory takes up a minimal amount of space.
  • Odorless:
    With a smart ventilation lid and specific suggestions in the instruction manual, The Worm Factory remains odorless as it works tirelessly to create rich organic material. So breathe easy!
  • Easy to Manage:
    The trays are lightweight and easy to stack and move, and the accompanying instruction manual is chock full of suggestions to make composting easy and seamless.
  • Saves Time:
    Forget running out to your composter to tumble and turn it! Let the worms do the work for you. They'll happily munch their way through your scraps and even junk mail, and you reap the benefits of what they leave behind. They don't stop, either, so the rate of compost is faster. Those babies can nosh up to 8 pounds of food per week, providing you a whole tray of nutrient-rich castings every month. That's efficiency.

      I wanted it for my plants, although my Husband and Grandson have different ideas for it! (Fishing). I love the convenience of it! It's also a great conversation starter. We have been sharing our new found hobby with our friends and families too! Thank you Hayneedle! Great product!

      Lid is not a lid

      By Supermom

      from New Mexico

      About Me Homeowner

      Pros

      • Sturdy

      Cons

      • Lid Doesn't Stay On

      Best Uses

      • Kitchen
      • Outdoor Use

      Comments about The Worm Factory® 4-Tray Recycled Plastic Worm Composter - Black:

      Difficult to get the plastic pieces apart to put it together. The lid is flimsy, the nut that holds the spout doesn't fit.

      It was really fun for my son to soak the core and ad the paper and worms. We enjoy watching the worms. Great family activity. Makes a huge mess at first, do it outside.

      Comments about The Worm Factory® 4-Tray Recycled Plastic Worm Composter - Black:

      I like it so far, but the lid warps a little even though I have the bed level. I think the lid is too thin and flimsy and should be more rigid. I would only recommend because it's a cool project esp to eliminate waste and if you have kids.

        Comments about The Worm Factory® 4-Tray Recycled Plastic Worm Composter - Black:

        This is a great classroom project. The assembly instructions a clear, and it can be set up before the worms are ordered and arrive. Lots of opportunity for expanded lessons: food webs, decomposers, interactions, recycling, etc. It is odorless and doesn't take day-to-day care. Perfect for my 5th graders!
