Keeping a worm farm is one option for recycling your food scraps if you live in an apartment and don't have your own backyard. 'You'll have a thousand new friends straigh away', says Alex King from Compost Revolution. One of the major benefits of a worm farm is being able to harvest the nutrient dense worm 'wee' and castings will give a boost to your indoor plants.

You are limited to what you can feed your worms – many don't like citrus or onions. You want to avoid meat and dairy so as not to attract other bugs or small animals.  King says that a reality of worm farming is that the worms sometime die:'They don’t like extreme temperatures, extreme moisture, extreme dryness.' It's best to think of your worm farm like any other pet that needs attention and monitoring.
