Just Before Christmas in Denver

Just before Christmas and all thru the Garden...No one is stirring! Not even me.

But I've been inside looking for new ideas for next year's garden. I came across this one and it sounds great. They are called Worm Tubes. Stick the end in the ground with the holes, put your kitchen scraps in the tubes, put a cover on (this one is a clay pot with a screen covering the hole to keep out the flies) and the worms will enter, eat up the scraps and return to the garden. Genius! See the blog I stole this from: http://www.garden.org/regional/report/arch/inmygarden/3430

I'm thinking that if you have some tubes with open ends you don't even need to make the holes at the bottom. Just insert, fill up and cap off. Voila! I'll put this on my list of things to do in the Spring.
