Worms are designed by nature to break down organics to nourish soils and plants with nutrients and create healthy soil ecosystems. Castings boost soil organic matter, promote beneficial microbes to mobilize nutrients, and help create a healthy soil living system that works for your plants.

Our worms support food circularity, and feast on compost from pre-consumer produce, vegetables, pumpkins, cut flowers, leaves, straw, newspaper, cardboard, coffee grounds, eggshells and sawdust.

Biochar is an ancient agricultural tool once used in the Amazonian Basin, which created Terra Preta.

Here, with infertile soils, the Amazonians practiced slash-and-char agriculture, charring forest biomass into biochar, to store water, nutrients and soil life underground to grow food in sustainable abundance.

Today, we can take this wisdom by using wood waste-converted biochar to improve your soil, so that you can grow more food (or plants), more sustainably.

Vermichar is a nod to the natural practices from the ancient Amazon which created Terra Preta, a rich, self-regenerating soil.  

In the Amazon, soils are infertile, but by amending them with chars (biochar) and compost, the ancient Amazonians lived and farmed in sustainable abundance.

We borrow this wisdom by composting organic wastes with Red Wiggler worms and combining biochar, creating powerful and carbon-negative soil amendments, so you can grow more food (or plants), more sustainably.
