We see consumers demand organic food and medicine, so many farms are switching to organic farming. Vermisterra worm castings are mother nature’s soil amendment of choice especially for organic certified farms and gardens.

Pure worm castings, uncut and very fine - unlike competing worm casting on the market.

You get a look at how fine Vermisterra worm castings look, they are definitely ready for plant absorption. No raw material left means flies and termites won’t bother you or your plants. We are certified organic by the USDA program and CDFA. Each batch of worm nutrient tea is tested and shown free of pathogens.
