The worms are doing well. In the second bin (the newer one), I am finally starting to see cocoons. YEAH more babies! A couple of people at work want to buy worms from Arianna for fishing. She could be an entrepreneur at 5! The problem is that they are her pets and she nearly cried when I suggested the selling of them. LOL We will have to work on that.

The garden is doing well. More sprouts are showing. It was such a late season this year. I am not sure anything will produce before the first frost (a month or less away!). I may try to greenhouse the box. Here is one idea: using flexible PVC (1" dia?) to create an arch over the box and then cover it with plastic. I have about a dozen tomatoes on the vines right now...hopefully they will ripen before then.

It has been getting into the 90's during the day and low 50's at night. It has not rained as much this year so Arianna has been watering like mad.
