Worm away your garbage

Cathys Crawly Composters

Vermicomposting, or worm composting, is an excellent way to convert household garbage into nutrient rich fertilizer. Composting with special composting worms is an efficient and environmentally friendly way to save tonnes of waste from going to landfill.

Why Everyone Should be Vermicomposting

If you Vermicompost you will reduce the amount of garbage being transported out of the province - The average Canadian produces a tonne of waste each year. Estimated 1/2 to 1/3 of household waste is organic matter.

Worms produce beautiful black castings - a nitrogen rich natural fertilizer. Totally organic and one of the best soil additives on the planet. Use worm castings in house plants and gardens.

Odourless when operating effectively - worms eat decomposing matter, therefore eating away any nauseous odours and leaving a fresh earthy smell.

"Good intentions and expressions of concern are not enough. Protecting the environment is the most serious challenge we face today. Every Canadian can and must get involved, not just today, but every day."

Dr. Roberta Bondar(1994)

Introducing: The Living Composter

Slightly smaller than the Worm Chalet (only 22" tall!), The Living Composter is more manageable for some, able to fit in those tight spaces.

Constructed from BPA free UV inhibited recycled polyethylene the plastic is contact safe and will not degrade if outside under direct sunlight. The maple hardwood legs are stained and urethane sealed for years of good looks.

Introducing: The LifeStraw

A personal water filter that lets you render almost any water, anywhere into safe pure drinking water.

The LifeStraw may be one of the most important pieces of equipment that you will own.

If you travel abroad you may have come across some questionable water sources. To avoid an illness that can ruin your trip (or force you to stay within running distance to a washroom) you want to be sure of your water supply.

A portion of all sales go to support clean-water projects worldwide. For every LifeStraw product sold, a child in a developing country receives clean, safe drinking water for an entire school year.
