Compost tumblers & worm farms

Tumblers and worm farms that turn kitchen scraps into compost and worm tea.

2 gift ideas here, each with a real shop for your country where we've found one.

A compost tumbler

Also in Farm tools, boots & workwear › Around the yard (Homesteaders)

A barrel on a stand that you turn every few days instead of forking a heap, and the lid keeps pests out. Tumbleweed's Australian-made 220L tumbler can sit on pavers or concrete; the US Maze has two chambers, so one side cooks while you fill the other.

A worm farm

Also in Farm tools, boots & workwear › Around the yard (Homesteaders)

Stacking trays where worms turn kitchen scraps into castings, with a tap for draining off worm tea for the garden. The Australian Worm Café is Australian-made from recycled plastic. Composting worms usually need buying separately, so add a box of worms if you can.
