Worms in Albania

In the fall, we started to compost. The major point was that I wanted something to do with our biodegradable kitchen waste. Then we acquired some worms--red wigglers to be exact. For several months, they've been eating and multiplying. This spring we decided to put the worm waste to work--in science experiments leading to the science fair in April. Among other tests, we examining the difference between plants growing in wormy dirt and those growing in regular soil. On Tuesday, we separated the worms from the soil, and the kids had a ball. You'll see some pictues below and at the end you can watch a video.














One budding horticultualist, Sarah, saw these funky yellow balls and with her inquisitive mind, said, "Mr. Martin, what are these yellow things?" I said, "I don't know, we'll have to look at the world's great equalizer when it comes to new information--the Internet." We didn't have to go so far because Mrs. Martin our principal, an experienced worm farmer herself, said, "Those are eggs. That's great. It means they are reproducing." It's great when worms get together.
