Go Eat Worms
Found this on http://www.wormfarmingsecrets.com/ . From the site "Earthworms are very nutritious. They are low in fat and high in protein making them a great source of food. In fact they are so good, an eco-restaurant has made it their business to use earthworms as the main ingredients of their food. This ranges from Earthworm cheesecake to Earthworm soup. With an increasing consciousness in health around the world, will this be popular world-wide? Watch the video here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/8085804.stm

Know Your Worms
Found this on WORMFARMINGSECRETS. From their newsletter-- Worm Farming Secrets - http://www.WormFarmingSecrets.com ~~~ Vol 3: Issue: 13 - Wednesday 6th May 2009" Earthworms don't just eat food directly because their mouth opening is really small. They require the help of manymicro-organisms to help them breakdown the food for them. In fact these microorganisms ARE PART of their daily diet! The microbes include nematodes, protozoans, bacteria and fungi. So you don'tneed to worry if the organics you feed them will give the worms enough protein to grow, they have plenty in their environment waiting for them!"

Homemade Drip Irrigation System
YOUGROWGIRL has this great information on building a homemade drip irrigation system. From this site, "One of the best ways to provide a steady water supply to your plants without your constant attention is the gradual watering system or drip irrigation. Through this method a device is employed that slowly delivers water into the soil directly around the roots. Commercial watering spikes can be purchased from you local garden centre however, using recycled materials you can make your own drip irrigation system for free. "Click here for instructions.---
