Many thanks to ecoMaine for recognizing WormMainea as one of the "20 for 20 Sustainable Mainers" at an engaging ceremony and luncheon in March 2020. It is both exciting and humbling to stand with such great company.

Resources for Educators

The following information is provided for teachers. Vermicomposting is a great project for the classroom. Kids learn about the natural cycle and where soil comes from as well as how they can reduce their contribution to the waste stream. I have reviewed some of the information available and selected a few that I think look good. 

Rodale Institute

North Carolina Cooperative Extension: Vermicomposting for Schools

San Luis Obispo County Integrated Waste Management Authority Vermicomposting Lesson for Teachers K-12

Alice Ferguson Foundation: Vermicomposting in the Classroom

If you have a favorite that you think should be listed, please send it to me.
