Welcome to Urban Worm Girl

Urban Worm Girl, L3C has been an industry leader in community-based vermicomposting since 2008. We have been introducing this innovative sustainability practice to the Chicago area through educational programming, residential and commerical worm compost bin installations, classroom education and school bin installations, and public outreach campaigns. Through our efforts, and the efforts of our clients, hundreds of tons of waste have been diverted from the commercial waste stream and converted into nutrient-rich soil with the help from a few hungry worms.

In March 2011, we released our first book, Composting Inside & Out: 14 Methods to Fit Your Lifestyle as an all-purpose guide to educate people on the various forms of composting and how to best incorporate composting into our busy lives.

So if you are ready to start your adventures in composting, contact us today and we'll be happy to get you started, and soon you'll be saying, "Worms Ate My Garbage....And Keep Eating!"

Check our Events Page to find us around town or at an upcoming fair, farmers market, or green event. You can purchase equipment, worms, and supplies or just come by to meet the red wigglers!
