Garden Rant: True Confession: I gave up on worm composting.
First, the big bin took up a lot of space and the spot I gave it was (apparently) too cold for these fussy critters over the winter. Moving the bin into my living room worked, but Lord, who wants a worm bin in their living room? And worse, when it came to harvesting the castings I had to manually separate the worms from the decaying food from the worm poop – not my idea of a fun time.

I like the honesty of Susan’s post. Gardening and compost is dirty business and not always fun. Some of us like the slime and the dirty fingernails and what not. Some don’t. What’s important is not giving up.
A sustainable lifestyle has ups, downs and frustrations. Susan’s post shows how to laugh off the hard parts and failures and move on.
