Our WormED project, in partnership with Yellow Farmhouse Education Center and Stone Acre Farms, is turning organic waste into nutrient-rich compost while teaching sustainability. What started with a few small worm bins has expanded to a commercial-scale system, and we’ve recently welcomed 5 lbs of Red Wigglers to help fuel our mission. Stay tuned as we continue to grow and engage the community!
