I've used Foothill Worm Ranch in Sunol, phone number is 925-484-4192.  Website: www.foothillwormranch.com

I called for mail delivery and got my package of worms in a couple of days..

Hope this works for you,

Bonnie

Thanks, Michael =)

 

Actually, I ended up finding U-save Rock in Hayward, and I got a yard for $36. Definitely "decent" for its price. Yes, some horse manure would wonderful to add to my hot pile. One more question, maybe you know, is there any local worm farms where I can purchase worms? My hot pile is getting rather huge, and I have a few worms, but I need more because I generate a lot of green matter (from kitchen scraps) and prefer keeping it home to make compost than to feed it to the green bin. I have found a place in Berkeley, but when I sent email to order (twice) they didn't reply... hmmm... anyway, maybe someone knows of a reliable, local place for worm farms???

 

Thanks again! =)

define decent ?? We had some free horse manure from the stables bevor Sunol on the right when you go up 680 ( i forgot the name ) . Otherwise i like Mushroom compost which is available for $40 -50 per yard from Evergreen nursery and from u-save rock in Hayward.
