BDN Features UMaine Extension Video, Tips on Worm Composting

The Bangor Daily News cited a University of Maine Cooperative Extension video for the article “Want compost? Let worms make it for you.” The worm composting video features UMaine Extension educator and professor Marjorie Peronto who offers tips on how to get started.
