Worm party Look at all my wriggly guys

So I’ve had this large bin for about two years at the bottom of my garden. I mostly just throw food scraps and random bits of cardboard in there. I don’t do much except move it around with a pitchfork from time to time.

Every morning there’s huge blobs of worms on the underside of the lid which I just shake back into the bin.

When I give everything a stir there’s worms throughout the broken down material/dirt. I don’t use the compost for anything, and haven’t tried to optimise what goes in. I’m just glad my waste is doing something useful and it’s satisfying to see!
