ran into this idea and am making a couple.worm towers pvc or plastic tube about 2' long 4"-8" dia. drill a lot 1/4" holes thoughout the tube dig a hole in the ground and let about 6" of tube remain out of the ground.backfill around the tube. and throw some orgainc materials in the bottom of tube w some worms and then just throw your kitchen scrap when it gets lower in the tube. thats basicly it i will post some pics later. seems like a great way to improve the soil around my vegis.

at first i thought ..that's dumb.
then it sunk in and 30 seconds later i'm thinking THAT SHIT IS GENIUS!!!

it's like an underground worm "bay" they could come in and out of. I've thought about adding worms to my garden's soil, but there's so much clay I figured they would just die when I covered them back up.

I might have to make a few of these and get back to you

try it.after i finish my raised beds im put 2 in the ground.
worms somehow seem to to do fine in clay soil, half my back yard is red clay type.i have been digging up the grass for my raised beds and found a lot of worms in there.
