Worm Farming,
Vermiculture, Compost Worms
Our Aim
Wormtec
Worm Farming and Vermiculture is positioned to
become the leading provider of natural organic microbial soil
products and foliar sprays for lawn, turf, garden and agricultural
crop maintenance programs in the Gold Coast Region, and then
expanding into the Southern Queensland and Northern New South Wales
Regions. This is a totally sustainable system with no negative
impacts on the environment. We are setting the standard for quality
natural soil products and on site application services By utilizing
compost worms in our natural product production
We are committed
to promoting sustainable agriculture with the use of environmentally
friendly natural organic microbial soil products and foliar sprays,
while reducing the use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides and
herbicides.
We aim to promote
home worm farming and vermiculture and the use of
worm derived natural soil improving products. We intend to help
improve the environment by converting green waste and animal manures
into useful natural organic soil improving products. These worm
derived soil enhancing products have no negative impacts on the
environment, unlike chemical fertilizers, and so reducing the use
and the harmful effects these chemical fertilizers are having on the
environment, with the use of compost worms and their
beneficiary soil improving products, while reducing pollution and
the amount of organic waste that goes to landfill sites each year.
Education Of The
General Public
We intend to help
educate the general public and any interested groups into the
benefits of home worm farming and the benefits to the
environment, with the use of worm derived soil enhancing products
through the free information on this website and any talks to
community groups, gardening clubs or even waste management
departments, please feel free to contact us through our contact form
at any time.
Converting Kitchen And
Yard Waste
We should be
putting our organic kitchen and yard waste back into the soil as
nature intended. Our organic waste should go back into the soil to
improve the environment organically. Compost worms thrive on
organic matter. In nature everything that dies goes back into the
soil to supply nutrients for the next generation of plants and
animals. This is a critical role. Compost worms rebuild the soil by
consuming organic matter and bio degradable materials back into the
top soil to supply much needed nutrients, while improving the soils
structure. Utilizing vermiculture and a worm farm with compost worms
is the ideal method of removing this organic waste from our rubbish
and then putting the worm cast back on to our gardens and lawns.
Animal Manures
Animal manure
problems can easily and safely be eliminated with the use of compost
worms. The compost worms will eliminate all smells and pathogens in
the manures and reduce these manures into natural soil improving
products.
Waste Management
We are more than
happy to work with waste management departments in the safe
conversion of commercial organic waste, it may be green waste or
animal manures. We can assist you in an environmentally friendly
manner to reduce your organic waste, with the use of compost worms
with no negative impact on the environment. Vermiculture is the
ideal method to reduce all our commercial organic waste.
Joint Ventures
We also have a
joint venture program in place where we supply our worm stock and
above ground worm pits, to your farm to eliminate a manure problem
that you may have. This is cost free to you. Please see joint
ventures under SERVICES.
The Worms Role
Worms will help
us convert all our organic matter into a plant available plant food
in the form of worm cast. Worm cast is the product of the worms
unique digestive system, converting organic matter into a 100%
available plant food that is non-toxic environmentally friendly,
safe and odour free. These soil conditioners will improve the soil
by draining clay soils and helping to retain moisture in sandy
soils, and supporting micro organisms and beneficial bacteria in
maintaining soil health.
The Environment
We have to stop
polluting our environment by sending our green waste to landfill
sites, and allowing animal manures to leach into our ground water
and rivers. These landfill sites produce toxic chemicals underground
due to the lack of oxygen. These toxic chemical leach into our
waterways and ground water supplies. This toxic leaching will
continue for many years to come. We all require clean water. Compost
worms can solve a lot of these problems and eliminate all this
waste, Keeping our natural ground water clean and pathogen free.
Think of the environment utilize a worm farm, vermiculture and
compost worms.
