Urban agriculture is the next thing to solve many problems from food deserts to crime. We all deserve to eat healthy and local. So thank you Will Allen and visit buffalo more often we need more good people like you helping us all. Remember everyone shop local, visit your local farmers market and join a CSA farm co-op.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17334717317837300469noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6065582222354311186.post-62728411739547775202009-09-29T16:17:00.000-07:002009-09-29T16:17:41.702-07:00Website of the dayToday website is <a href="http://www.backyardchickens.com/">Backyard Chickens</a> this is a fun website about keeping chickens and has some interesting info on coops.

I use a worm bin called the Worm Factory that uses a self sorting upward migration. The bin is filled with coco fiber, food scraps and paper fiber. The worms consume the scraps and leave behind castings. The bin also has a nozzle to collect the compost tea. This produces micro organism rich soil that is perfect for your garden. It also saves landfill space. I will post video of my setup so you can see how wonderful vermicomposting is.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17334717317837300469noreply@blogger.com0
