Worm composting or vermicomposting is not as hard as it sound. Anybody from around the world can start worm composting at any time. Though extreme weather is a hindrance to vermicomposting since the worms need to thrive in certain temperatures, this hobby can be done almost everywhere as long as the worms can thrive. This can be done in the city as well, like what I'm doing. You don't necessarily need a garden or a lawn to start having your own vermicompost. You can have your worm bins inside your house if you don't have a space.
So what do you need to start composting with worms? To start your worm composting and worm farming, you'll need the following:
Worms - there are two popular worms for composting. The Red Wigglers and African Night Crawlers
Worm bin - this can be made of wood or plastic which you can either purchase or make
Bedding - any organic material where the worms can live, i.e. newspapers, cardboards
Worm food a.k.a food wastes - these are left overs and other organic wastes
Once you have these materials, you can go ahead and start your own vermicompost or vermiculture.
