WHAT IS IMPACT FARMING?
Impact Farming is an alternative investment model that allows you to own income-generating physical assets rather than traditional stocks or financial products.
With The Compost Kitchen, you own Earthworm Farms, which we manage on your behalf, producing vermicompost that generate revenue.
We handle all the farming operations—feeding, breeding, and selling—while you earn passive income from the sales of sustainable agricultural products.

WHY EARTHWORMS?
South Africans love their gardens and are embracing earthworm farming as a rewarding hobby and a key to organic vegetable gardening.
Vermicomposting naturally enriches soil, reduces food waste, and supports a thriving home garden. Yet, local production struggles to meet demand. Gardeners, small-scale farmers, and eco-conscious households seek organic alternatives to chemical fertilizers.
Investing in earthworm farming supports soil regeneration, cuts waste, and taps into the growing market for sustainable agriculture.
