Vermicomposting

Week Two: Vermicomposting

Lesson: Worm Hotel
This week we talked about composting with worms. We do have a worm bin in the garden at El Morro. I showed the kids the worms (red wigglers) and taught them what they do and do not eat. We fed them vegetable scraps and gave them a fresh bed of moistened newspaper. EXTRA CREDIT: If your child brings worm food to garden club, he/she will earn a Star Buck!!!

Gardening: We planted an herb garden that included rosemary, dill, parsley, and cilantro.

Reminder: Here are the rules of the garden. Please be sure that you and your child are aware of what is expected of them in the garden.
