7 members of the club took an outing to ECHO. We had the opportunity to attend a Vermiculture class. We learned about the body of the worm, how worms help the garden and that worms have 5 hearts! We were also given the opportunity to get a closer look at the worms by using a magnifying glass. We even got to measure them with rulers to see how long they were.
