Worm Composting Canada is a small vermicomposting business based in Waterloo Region (Ontario, Canada). We currently sell Red Wiggler Worms (Eisenia fetida) for worm composting, fishing and live food. We will have a major focus in our local region - Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge and Guelph, Ontario - but are also happy to ship our worms elsewhere in Canada. If you happen to be based in the United States, the good news is that we've partnered with a fantastic supplier south of the border, and thus can easily fill U.S. orders as well. Please contact us for more information.
Just so you know, worm composting is much more than just a business for us here at WCC - it is an all-consuming passion! Aside from selling worms and supplies, we hope to share this passion with as many people as we possibly can! To learn more about us and our vision - be sure to check out our About Us page.
Red Worms (also known as Red Wigglers, Manure Worms, and Brandling Worms) are the most commonly used species of composting worm. They are very easy to keep, are prolific breeders under ideal conditions, and will feed on your waste food scraps (with some exceptions) quite readily. Their small size makes them idea as a live food source for fish, amphibians, retiles and birds as well.
Starter Culture - $15-23 per bag
Worm Compost Ecosystem - $10-15 per bag
We have decided to discontinue our 'Mini' Worm Bin in favour of encouraging (and helping) people to set up their own DIY vermicomposting systems.
For those who want to get really serious about vermicomposting and/or want to enjoy the advantages of a 'continuous flow' vermicomposting system (one that makes harvesting vermicompost very easy), we are now offering a new and improved version of the 'Worm Inn' - the 'Worm Inn Pro'.

I made this short video earlier today when I came across a Red Wiggler crawling up the sliding door leading out to my deck!
If you want to see the sweet little ditty I wrote about it, be sure to check out my post over on Red Worm Composting!
I’ve written previously about my vermicomposting trenches. Well, I’m happy to report that I was finally able to put together a video offering an overview of this approach.
Hopefully this will help to inspire others to give vermi-trenches a try!
Just a quick post to make people aware of the publication of “Part I” of an interview I took part in a couple of weeks ago. It is especially geared towards those just getting into worm composting – seasoned veterans may not get much from it (but ya never know).
As my own worst critic (and [...]
The ‘Winter Worm Windrow’ is doing very well – hoping to start harvesting worms from it soon!

I just wanted to write a little about my winter worm composting bed. Those of you who follow my other sites may already know that I’ve [...]
