About Wormy Acres of Vermont

Wormy Acres of Vermont Farmers Market Sign

I (Jase) have been keeping red wiggler compost worms (Eisenia foetida) on a smallish scale for about 5 years now — inside my apartment, in the basement, in outdoor bins, or wherever the circumstances allowed at the time.

In 2008, we decided to take it a bit bigger and get enough worms to compost all of the food waste of a local cafe. When the new Burlington South End Farmers Market started up just outside the building where I worked (as a web developer), the opportunity was there to share my our interest in compost worms with other local folks. Thus… Wormy Acres of Vermont was born.

“Wormy Acres” itself is the back corner of our property in Bolton, Vermont.  “Wormy 1/10th of an Acre” might have been more accurate, but it doesn’t have quite the same ring to it!

Welcome to our wormy home on the web! In the past year we’ve published quite a few articles.  Take a look around to learn more.  If you’re ready to buy worms now, head directly to our Buy Red Wiggler Compost Worms Page.
