WORMbox, the tray worm composter made in France

Did you know?

Along with the City Worms, the WORMbox is one of the very first worm composters made in France for composting right in your kitchen.

Moutta Farm has been raising composting worms in the Béarn region since 2007. To help everyone recycle their food scraps at home, the farm designed its own worm composter: the WORMbox. The WORMbox's design and trays draw on more than 15 years of vermicomposting experience.

The WORMbox worm composter is made in France, in the Landes region. The black parts are made from recycled and recyclable plastic. The WORMbox lid lifts off with one hand and hooks onto the edge of the tray. The worms move up from one WORMbox tray to the next, drawn by the fresh food scraps, and you harvest the vermicompost from the bottom.

For larger volumes, the WORMbox 240 Collective, also made in France, processes about 880 lb (400 kg) of organic waste a year thanks to its silo system. All WORMbox replacement parts are available: tray, lid, planter, wheels, and spigot. The WORMbox worm composter comes with a 10-year warranty, and the WORMbox 240 Collective with a 2-year warranty.
