weather has been nasty, coot wet and cloudy. so i decided to build a worm bin, i been having trouble keeping the moisture levels right in the plastic bins. this measures 4'x 2'x 1' i will empty all my worm bins together maybe 4-5 lbs will be better in one bin rather then 3 bins.

i found this litle guy at the end of the driveway on the road, so i planned on burying him the proper way. i have a bunch living in my patch , 1 of them had a fettish for pkns,i hope this is him, because i couldnt break down and kill an animal even if it did eat my pumpkin.
