The Box Of Life
Welcome to our third episode of The Classroom Compost Chronicles 🪱 📚
A series where we sit down with real teachers using real worms in real classrooms.
We’re talking the honest moments, the learning, the surprises... and the real impact composting is having on students every day.
Let’s dig in 🌱

Are you an obsessed worm parent too? What’s a quirky thing you’ve done..?
I bought a paper shredder and now my paper recycling has dropped to almost zero because everything gets shredded and fed to the wormies!

I noticed gardeners struggling with their black plastic compost bins… so I designed something that works better and is more functional!
Introducing the Bench of Life - a cedar garden bench that turns food scraps into rich compost using worms 🪱
It looks beautiful in the garden, makes composting way easier, and can be fed all kinds of food scraps, leaves, grass clippings, and . Plus, I personally help you get set up and support you along the way (yes, I’m the worm guy 😂).
Built locally in Ottawa from sturdy cedar by a woodshop that hires people with disabilities, this worm bench is an investment for the years.
Dimensions - 6 ft wide, 1.5 ft tall, 1.5 ft deep.
Two options are available -
#1 with integrated planters on either side (4ft of composting space)
#2 with a flat lid and 6 ft of composting space
It includes delivery, worms, set up and a mini workshop on best practices.
Message me if you want to see if one would fit your garden 🌿
