It's working now!

We got the heater fixed. Actually the heater wasn't broken, Chuck accidently reversed the wires when he hooked up the new thermostat. That was a relief.

Oh My!

I totally jinxed us! The day after my last post, our heater quit working. Chuck and I spent 1 1/2 hours in 5 degree weather moving our worms from the worm shed to our heated garage. We didn't lose the worms thank goodness! The heater is now fixed, but we really, really don't want to haul all the worms back until it warms up just a bit hehe.

December - Merry Christmas!

Hey all. We are getting ready for our winter harvest here in the next week or so. . .most likely the week of Christmas, since the kids will be home to help out. And let me tell you, they are so excited NOT hehe.

It is freezing here, but our worms are nice and toasty warm out in their heated shed! We've gotten about 6 inches of snow the past 2 days and now that the storm has blown over and it's a clear night, it's only about 5 degrees outside tonight (it's 9:26 pm).

Chuck spent last Thursday at the middle school teaching the 6th graders all about worms. He had 5 classes he taught. The last class has our 6th grader in it. At the end of the class the teacher was asking what everyone learned. She got to our daughter and the reply was "nothing." That got a good laugh out of the class. Later that day our daughter was at 4-H and was selected to speak at the fair next August about vermicomposting. She was pretty excited she was picked to speak.

Well, don't forget, it doesn't have to be summer to order product from us. We've been shipping things out all fall, and actually just sent castings out in the mail today for a customer.

Thanks for reading.
