here are my new bins ready to go for some worms. We put them in our garden paths as so not waste any space.. we used two drawers from one of those plastic carts. I put holes in the bottom for drainage. They are not big but they will have to do for now. We will have to build boxes for the next row between the next beds..

That is soooo cool! You're doing Square Foot Gardening! :D Your beds look wonderful! I tried some SFG this year but I wasn't quite as neat as you are. How's that working out for you? It's been working great for me, the garden is doing better than most everyone's around here. I love the vermicomposting also and plan to get my system going this fall. For now, I have noticed if my beds are well mulched, the worms move in on their own and do the job of aeration, tillage and fertilization for me. I am going to start growing them to sell to the anglers around here also...they go for $1.75 a doz. around here! :th
