I started out with the stacking bins. My last bin was made from treated 2x10 lumber with a plywood lid. It was probably 3 feet deep and 6 feet long. It was outside on the west side of the house. Always had a good crop of worms. It seemed if it was a really cold winter, they would be almost gone, but evidently there were enough eggs to regenerate the population. I remember they loved pumpkin. I would throw in dry leaves as well. I would get 2 or 3 large bags of compost per year.
