Compost as Seen by a Worm


 If you have ever seen compost you know that it can be pretty disgusting, the sights the smell the textures. Actually I kind of like it. But imagine to a worm, what all that tasty rotting vegetable matter looks like? This painting is basically the happy dream that a worm has, waiting for spring to arrive. Our composter is right full at the moment, and if the weather can warm up a bit it should start composting quite vigorously. The composter is home to worms, ants, millipedes, centipedes, potato bugs, moths, a large creeper vine which attracts bees, and who knows how many micro-organisms that digest all that good stuff.
