Why Vermicomposting ?

Each year, billions of tons of organic waste are sent to landfills, where it produces harmful methane gases, contributing to climate change. But what if we told you there’s a simple, natural solution to transform this waste into something beneficial? That’s where vermicomposting comes in. Vermicomposting is the process of using earthworms to convert food scraps and other organic matter into nutrient-rich compost. With the Worm Café, you can reduce your carbon footprint, decrease landfill waste, and create high-quality compost for your garden or plants.


By embracing vermicomposting, you’re not just reducing waste; you’re closing the loop in the natural ecosystem and helping to replenish the soil with valuable nutrients. Whether you’re a homeowner, restaurant owner, or part of a larger community, the Worm Café offers a sustainable, odor-free, and efficient way to manage organic waste.

The average person throws away CHF 500 worth of food annually.

Organic waste accounts for 80% of waste in restaurants.

How it works ?

  • Step 1: Set up the Worm Café in 15 minutes.

    Simply place the Worm Café in a well-ventilated, sheltered area such as your garden, balcony, or even inside your home. With multiple trays, it’s designed for easy and continuous use. It takes less than 15 minutes to assemble and get started.

  • Step 2: Add 500g of worms, and start feeding them your waste.

    The Worm Café comes with 500g of Eisenia Fetida (Red Wigglers), highly efficient composting worms. Begin feeding them your kitchen scraps such as fruit peels, vegetable leftovers, coffee grounds, and even small amounts of paper and cardboard. The worms will break down this organic matter into compost.

  • Step 3: Harvest Vermicompost and Vermitea after 4 months for rich fertilizer.

    After a few months, your worms will have created nutrient-rich vermicompost – perfect for improving the quality of your soil and growing healthier plants. Vermitea, a liquid fertilizer, can be harvested from the bottom tray and is ideal for feeding your plants.

  • Step 4: Reduce your waste, create compost, and make a difference.

    By continuously feeding your worms and harvesting compost, you can drastically reduce the amount of waste your household generates, turning it into valuable organic matter that helps the environment.

Why Earthworms are the Ultimate Recyclers

Earthworms have been recycling organic matter for millions of years, and they’re nature’s unsung heroes. When it comes to composting, worms are the best assistants you could ask for. They consume food waste and convert it into vermicompost, which is far more nutrient-rich than traditional compost. Here’s why vermicomposting is a superior choice:


• Higher Nutrient Content: Vermicompost is packed with essential nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, magnesium, and calcium, which promote healthy plant growth.

• Zero Odor: Unlike traditional composting methods, vermicomposting with the Worm Café is completely odor-free. The worms quickly break down waste, preventing the buildup of unpleasant smells.

• Environmentally Friendly: By using worms to compost, you’re reducing methane emissions from landfills and creating a closed-loop recycling system that benefits the soil and the environment.


Worms not only recycle organic matter, but they also help aerate the soil, improving its structure and fertility. They can even remove harmful heavy metals from the soil and do not carry any harmful parasites, making them a safe and efficient partner in your composting journey.
