When you order worms from us, you also join our private WhatsApp group, where we guide you from your first worms to your first income.
Most people fail at worm farming because they try to do it alone — we’ve spent over 6 years learning what works, and we’re here to share it so you can succeed.
What you can sell
Once your worms have grown, you can sell 3 main products.
There are also many extras you can add on — just browse our website to see what else you could sell.

There's no reason why you can't do it too
Earthworms Double in 3 Months
-
If you start with 1,000 worms, they can grow to 2,000 in about 3 months.
-
You could sell the extra 1,000 for R850, but then you’re back to 1,000 worms and only make R850 every 3 months.
-
That’s why we recommend first growing your worm population if you’re serious about your side hustle.
No hype. Just a real, low-stress way to grow something.
We won’t promise overnight riches or “quit your job in 30 days”.
What we can promise:
-
A simple, supported way to start a small, living asset at home.
-
A realistic path from zero to your first few sales, and then steady growth if you keep at it.
-
A side hustle that respects your energy, time, and mental health.
It's your side-hustle, you have to make it succeed, but we'll hold your hand.

FAQ
Q: How much time does this really take?
A: Expect an hour or two to set up, and then around 10–20 minutes a week to feed, check moisture, and do small maintenance.
Q: Does it smell or attract flies?
A: A properly managed worm bin smells like forest soil, not a dustbin. We'll advise on how to avoid smells and flies.
Q: Can I do this in a flat / small space?
A: Yes. Many customers run worm farms on balconies, in courtyards, or even in garages.
Q: How soon can I start selling?
A: Most people start selling small amounts of compost or excess worms after a few months, then scale up as the worm population grows.
Q: Can I take earthworms from my garden
A: No those reproduce too slowly, eat too slowly and don't live in dense populations. Red Rigglers are specifically for composting.
Q: How do I get started?
A: Watch the video of how we got started to get ideas. Make a basic worm bin, then order your worms on our website.
Q: What can I feed the worms?
A: Stick to 'raw, vegan' waste at the start. You can do more complicated food later when you get experience.
