The Tumbleweed Worm Farm consists of a sturdy, nesting box with hinged lid, driptray sloping to a central drain and 4 legs. It is a neat, compact, portable unit. The Tumbleweed worm farm is the ideal way to recycle your kitchen waste, this neat compact unit provided the perfect environment for composting worms to feed and breed, the resulting worm casts are the basis of potting compost plus you get a liquid fertiliser for free.

The worms eat and breed in the nesting box and this is where their food is placed. This box has a perforated base so that any liquid waste can drain through into the driptray. Solid waste or “worm poo” which is often called castings remains in the top box. This makes a good soil conditioner and can be harvested as required.

Extra boxes are NOT required. Worms produce more liquid waste than solid as their diet has a high percentage of water. Consequently the build up of solid castings is slow and it will take the average family well over a year to fill the top box with castings. A pot positioned under the driptray can be used to collect all the valuable liquid waste which is a by product of the worms. This can be used as a fertilizer on your garden by diluting it with equal amounts of water.

The differences between the Worm Farm and Pet Poo Converter

Yes they are the same! The reason we sell them under different names is that we recommend the compost from the pet poo converter is not put onto the vegetable garden, whereas the normal kitchen waste feed to a worm farm can. Although the worms kill of most pathogens we cannot guarantee it kills all and in this way we make the customer aware in the instructions where to use the compost.

The top box can be used on both but you should be aware that adding a top box does not mean it will work quicker by adding more worms to the extra space. Worms live just below the surface and it is the surface area that determines how many worms you can have and how quick it works. The worms are self regulating. All the extra box does is allow you to empty the worm farm less often and in the case of the pet poo converter you do not need to be in touch with the poo in the top box.
