The worm farm is located on eight rolling acres, in the foothills of central California. Questions are welcome and care is given to provide accurate information regarding the operation of a worm farm. Raising worms is a profitable business but in addition to fish bait and reptile food worms are a great gift for our environment. By consuming organic waste and eating up to their own weight daily, these little creatures offer an alternative to the use of landfills. Vermiculture is the process of composting waste.
Castings are the natural by-product of worms.
The process of converting waste into a nutrient-filled humus is called vermicomposting. The casts are used by organic gardeners, landscapers, home gardeners and field farmers. Mixed with the soil they offer nitrogen, phosphorus and potash to the plants without the fear of burning. Foley Farms offers quality red worms, whose genus and species have been identified by taxonomist, Dr. Sam James. Orders are shipped on Monday's and Tuesday's and worm prices include shipping within the United States.
