Vermiculture, or worm composting, is a great alternative to the traditional composting method, because it can be done in a relatively small amount of space with quick results and little to no odor, which makes it possible to do even indoors!! Although there are some initial steps and prep work necessary before you can begin composting, once everything is set up, the worms take care of most of the mess for you.
At the formal release party of some red wigglers at my friends’ house, I too discovered the wonders of vermiculture.

Salazar Green is a landscape project that includes a new track + field and community/school garden. Located in Santa Fe, NM, this project was designed to encourage positive habits of physical health and nutrition.

The plots at the Santa Fe Railyard community garden are really beginning to take off. However, some of the herbs are not taking to the hot summer heat as well as their vegetable companions.

This growing season I decided to break out of my containers and tiny planting bed in the driveway and extend my roots to my neighborhood community garden.
