Good Monday morning to all you critter and land loving folks. This past week found part of our crew at the South Dakota Soil Health Coalition 2024 Soil Health Conference. We took our two oldest with us, and they sat through all of it as a part of their school for the week, a total science win! I was super encouraged that the audience had at least a dozen youth 18 or younger taking in the wealth of knowledge that was shared. It was encouraging across the board as is anything where you join up with like minded folks. People who are willing to share their successes and failures in a hope to press people forward on their ranching and farming operations. We had such a great time and took in sessions about cover crops, gardening for healthy soil, and worm compost/casting, whoa, so much information. I am all for setting up all four kids with a worm farm, ha! It’s so good to be encouraged to keep working for healthy soil for our generation and the ones to follow. Worm ranching, here we come…
Blessings to you, yours, and your operation.

I was interested in worm farming years ago, but the difficulty I run into with pretty much every business opportunity I consider is the marketing. Did they have any suggestions for how or where to market your castings or worm juice?
The guy that lead this break out was taking his extras, both worms and castings to the local farmers market when he took his produce in. If you could find an outlet, possibly flower shops, garden nurseries, or even bait shops with your worm extras?! I am not sure what this looks like to scale, but I hope it got some marketing ideas rolling!
