Handout 1: Caring for Your Earthworm Wonderland

Adapted from EcoArt! by Laurie Carlson.

Caring for your Earthworm Wonderland at home:

  • Keep the soil lightly moist, but not wet. Do not let it dry out.
  • To feed the worms, sprinkle crushed dry dog food, shredded carrot bits, coffee grounds, or cornmeal over the soil.
  • When you are finished studying your worms, return them to a garden, a yard, or a park where, they can continue doing their good work for the earth!
