Sustainable

Posted by: quentin  /  Category: Uncategorized

The essence of my endevours is to create develop a sustainable earthworm project.This may seem quite a mouthful so let me elaborate.

I have been applying worm technology to my work in order to be able to achieve and co-operate with the worms.They live industiously in the litter layer beneath trees and in other such organic rich environments, Their food supply{ waste supply} is bountifully supplied by the biome in which they live. So on a macro scale, because humans go bigger I have begun to create a biome with a good supply of matter for my, captive and free range worms.

I prefer not to rack up ‘food miles’ sourcing waste to feed my wrigglers, so I have been planting plants, which through trial and error ,I have ascertained to be excellent foodstock.I have chosen plants which grow with minimum inputs and successfully in my climate and soil zone.

By taking this path and seeing the results which also includes applying worm technology:mulching and planting with vermicompost I have realised that we gardeners have an opportunity to plant our own garden of Eden.Today.earthworms need water

The day after the start of earthworms .co.za and I am quite awed by the space opening up. Room to share my project with a wider audience, wellcome on board all concious people. I created the images on the site for visual satisfaction in 2006. The project has developed and I will update with fresh pics of action and projects since then.All my work relates back to the use of earthworms and what I call ‘worm technology’. More about that later.

Primarily earthworms represent an increase in fertility and natural methods of work.I have begun to realise we need to trust nature.I hope this sentiment finds resonance?……….
