Ok, your grandpa had an awesome idea for summer and winter here is the link.

Now I will need to contemplate the possibilities.
We've got the shell from an old washing machine buried that we use to store potatoes in for the winter. When it gets cold we throw a couple of square bales of hay over the top. Potatoes stay good all winter, I don't see why worms with the proper bedding would have a problemOriginally Posted by Vodin
That's a neat idea, but wouldn't it be difficult to dig down to the bottom of it? And I think the climate would dictate if it were to work. Up here The ground will freeze solid for up to 6 months. I really can't see them surviving.
Incidentally, I have always fed mine cornmeal.

Is there any reason why you couldn't put your hinged box within a ground box?
Seems like it would be an extra layer of insulation and easier to access that way.
I thought just hit me.... do Worms hibernate? Kinda silly thinking a bird flies em in when springs hits. And we got 2-3 every shovel full in our garden... so I must be missing something about worm habitat...

I don't think I am cut out to be a worm rancher. The fancy-pants worms I bought will only eat corn meal and need slightly damp sphagnum moss. I was expecting food scraps and plain old dirt. At least they have stopped escaping. I am tired of scraping worm carcass off of the concrete floor.
try soaking down a section of newspaper, and tossing that in there. if you keep it wet, it will serve as food, mulch, bedding material, everything. Once it is about 1/2 gone, repeat
