Earthworms keep the vegetable garden healthy and in good heart.

Earthworms are good for the garden. The more you have the better it will be.

      Worms pull the small bits of rubbish (like dead leaves) down into the soil.

    *
      They eat them up and convert them into humus, which is full of nutrients and available to help the vegetable plants grow.
    *
      Worms open the soil up as they wiggle through it, bringing air  into the soil, which is essential for the roots to grow and produce healthy veg.
