Oh, yes, Rodale must be involved. It was over 30 years ago when I began subscribing to Organic Gardening published by Rodale Press. That was my introduction to worm farming and the books I purchased on organic gardening. Although I was afraid of worms at the time, after I had read about the many benefits of worms for our environment, I just had to "get my hands on the redworms". I immediately placed my order for redworms from one of the advertisers in the classified section. I anxiously awaited the arrival of my redworms. My mother and grandmother thought maybe my head should be examined for my effort in setting up my worm boxes in my basement. They just could not see how such tiny worms were going to do what I desired. I happily brewed up an urn of coffee for my worms even though I did not even drink coffee. I quickly got over my fear of worms. But my worms performed so well in developing cocoons, many baby worms, and worm castings, to going into a large compost pile in my backyard for speedier decompostion. How happy I was to use the finished product in my heavy clay yard and indoor light gardens. The redworms provided for my garden, lawn, and indoor plants the results for which I was striving and anticipating. It was due to Rodale Press that I got involved in raising redworms.
