I think worm composting (also called Vermicomposting) is actually the easiest and most enjoyable way to compost.  The worm castings are some of the most beneficial things to add to your garden with boosts in nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium.  But also a boost in Biome in the form of micro biology like beneficial bacteria and mites and other small bugs.  Even more so, you are likely to add some worm cocoons and eggs to the garden as well when you add the castings.  These will likely become worms themselves and we all know how good worms are for. your garden.  

You can also make things like worm tea which are great for potted plants and a sorta fertilizer to add regularly to your plants.  Worms do a great job in breaking down bio matter and turning it into nutrients available for plants to utilize very quickly.  One more benefit is, I plan on giving these as snacks to my chickens.  They will love eating them, and they are protein boosts.  

I add egg shells to my worm bin to help boost the calcium content which in return will boost the calcium levels in my garden as well.  This will help in blossom end rot and other calcium deficient diseases in plants.  

its super easy to set up one of these bins, I highly recommend it.  It can be kept indoors and doesn't smell whatsoever.  You can do this even in an apartment.  And if you live in a mild climate you can even keep these outside in a shaded patio.
