Worm Culture

Here’s a toast to the worms doing the important work of decomposing organic matter and thereby enriching our soil.

I love finding them when I’m digging in the garden, but it must be so shocking to be so suddenly exposed.

Worse is finding them surfaced with the pounding rain. 

There’s always a few that don’t make it back underground – either swallowed by birds or left to dehydrate on asphalt and concrete. 

Cheers to the worms doing the important, dirty work that feeds us all!!
