Worm Factory - $67.00 Plus Shipping
This bin works on the principle of upward migration. After the first tray is fed until it is full, a second tray is placed on top. By the time the last tray is full, most of the worms will have left the original tray. The vermicompost in that tray is then dumped out, and the tray moved to the top of the stack.
Each bin comes with coconut coir bedding, manufacturer's instructions, and some important instructions and tips from Gardengold.

Worm
Wigwam
The
Worm Wigwam is designed to process large amounts of food and organic
waste. The byproduct is a rich finished compost that is a readily
usable or salable product reducing the need for chemical fertilizer.
Just turn the harvest handle, remove the door and collect the "worm
free" finished compost from the bottom tray.
Traditional
methods of vermicomposting have been based on beds or windrows on the
ground containing waste up to 18" deep, but such methods have numerous
drawbacks. They require large areas of land for large-scale production
and are relatively labor intensive, even when machinery is used for
adding waste to beds. More importantly, such systems process wastes
relatively slowly, taking anywhere from 6 to 18 months for processing
to be complete. There is good evidence that a large proportion of the
essential plant nutrients, that are in a relatively soluble form, are
washed out and also a significant proportion can volatilize during this
long processing period. Such nutrient losses are undesirable,
particularly in relation to ground water pollution and result in a poor
finished product.
The
Worm Wigwam requires no compost turning and requires no separating of
worms and partially decomposed waste from the finished compost.
The
Worm Wigwam is 3 feet tall and 3 feet wide and weighs 86 pounds.
The
Worm Wigwam operates best when the worm population is at its optimum
level (15-18 pounds or 15,000 to 18,000 worms). Much has been said
about how much a worm will consume on a daily basis. Some say that an
earthworm will eat its own weight on a daily basis, so conservatively
we could cut that number in half. Due to all the variables (food
stocks, worm population, type of worms and temperatures) we can make no
claim to the daily consumption of organic waste. The Worm Wigwam is
heated and insulated for optimum year round use. It features a raised
floor design providing maximum aeration for faster worm feeding and
shorter composting times.
