Is there such a thing as a compact wormery?
Can someone point me in the riht direction. I'd like to place it next to our compost bin, butting up to the shed on one side.

The Can O Worms is pretty compact.  It takes up as much room as a black bin but is shorter.  I did get a bit fed up with mine though as I was already using a compost bin and this was producing compost much faster than the wormery.  Plus, my worms kept crawling into the sump at the bottom and drowning if I didn't get them out every day!   ::)  So, I ended up putting my worms into the compost bin.  I have two compost bins, so I used to keep orange peel etc that worms aren't fond of out of the one with worms in, but now I don't bother separating the scraps as I have noticed composting worms have found their way into the other bin and they don't seem to mind the citrus peel.
