Earth day is pretty much WORM DAY, in disguise!! 🌎

And while big changes matter… we’re here for the small but mighty ones 🪱

Today (and everyday), we’re celebrating the quiet heroes under our feet—
WORMS.

They don’t need attention.
They don’t need applause.
But they do change the world.

Follow along this week to see how something as simple as worms can make every day Earth Day.

CONTEST ALERT!!

Every day should be Earth Day…
But why not celebrate yours with an action that makes every day Earth Day?

Add worms. 🪱🌱

We’re celebrating Earth Day with a classroom contest — and one lucky class will win their very own worm bin!

Did you know soil is like mother nature's Prozac?

"It seems soil may contain antidepressant and anti-anxiety microbes. Preclinical research indicates that some fungi and bacteria in our soil may influence neurotransmitter production. A bacterium of particular interest, Mycobacterium vaccae, has been found to stimulate serotonin production in mice, improving stress resilience, cognitive function, and more (Matthews et al., 2013; Juarez et al., 2022)."

Just another reason to vermicompost and play in the dirt all year round.

🍎 THE GREAT APPLE DECOMPOSITION RACE - DAY 62
THE WORMS WIN!!!!!!!!
(They don't get all the credit though, we can't forget the invisible helpers... The MICROBES!!! which don't hang around in "dirt")

Our Great Apple Decomposition Race is officially over. It took a little longer than expected, but the worms have completely transformed the apple into beautiful soil and black gold.

Food waste → living soil.

This is the kind of magic we love sharing with classrooms — watching nature recycle right before your eyes.

Congratulations to our contest winner Danielle Stockman

When your daughter chooses to make a worm as her afterschool creation, you know she gets it.

Small but mighty. Quiet but powerful.

The humble worm teaches us one of nature’s greatest lessons — that real change happens from the ground up.

The power of the worm is the power to transform scraps into soil, waste into life, and little actions into big impact.

Oh how relevant this lesson is on so many levels...

My work here is done.
