Project Vermi  

I have always been fascinated with worms but it used to be for my hobby of fishing whereby all the worms are gathered or collected to help me to catch some fish. And most of the worms were found digging around the house where the soil is black and damp with moisture, especially at and around banana groups of trees.

Little that I know, one day I would even try breeding them worms systematically since at the moment I have got at about 6 kilograms of a mix between Red Worms and Red Wriggler that my brother-in-laws bought and brought from a worm producer where he attended a seminar not to long ago. I already put them in a homemade wood bin and all the worms so far were living cosily inside a medium made from finely grind wood mixed with finely grind goat dropping or maybe can be called goat manure.

Later I suppose I would like to write a detail journal of the project, the ups and downs, the journal that maybe would help me to keep track of the progress of this pet project.
