The Worm Wagon

Hi there! I’m Lindsay, and I’m super excited to welcome you to The Worm Wagon, my cozy corner of the internet dedicated to the fascinating world of worm farming and sustainable gardening. If you have read my About Me, you may want to skip this post. It’s largely that in post form. But, I’m fully aware that most people don’t go pouring through each page on a website. That said… moving on!

My Journey into Worm Farming

My interest in worm farming started many years ago with a memorable experience involving my grandfather. When I was about 12 years old, he decided to raise worms for a living. We set up multiple 55-gallon barrels, fancy tables, and a strict feeding schedule. Unfortunately, the summer heat took us by surprise, and we ended up “cooking” all the worms. Despite this mishap, I found the whole process fascinating, and that memory has stayed with me ever since.

Fast forward to today, and I’ve rekindled my love for worm farming. As a gardener (though not always a successful one), I am determined to take my time and enjoy the process, learning and growing along the way.

A Bit About Me

Professionally, I’m a financial analyst, but my true passion lies in continuous learning and education. Currently, I’m working towards a teaching degree with a focus on science. I believe strongly in the importance of caring for our earth, and I see vermicomposting as a perfect way to combine my love for science and sustainability.
