Meet Samantha Flowers
The Heart Behind the Farm
I started worm farming with my grandson while fishing—and grew it into a regional commercial vermiculture operation.
Today, I teach thousands of people how to farm worms the right way, whether they’re composting at home or building something bigger.
My mission is simple:
Help families, homesteaders, schools, and small farms build healthy soil and reduce waste using the power of worms.
Why Trust Me?
Experience
I run one of the Southeast’s fastest-growing commercial vermiculture operations, producing tens of thousands of pounds of worms, castings, and bedding every year.
Expertise
I work hands-on with Red Wigglers (Eisenia fetida), Eisenia andrei, and European Nightcrawlers, using proven systems like 4x8 and 4x10 wedge beds. What I teach is based on real data, real bins, and real results.
Authority
My guides, manuals, charts, and YouTube trainings are used by hobbyists, homesteaders, teachers, and commercial growers all across the United States.
Reliability
No fluff. No hype. No shortcuts. Everything I share here comes directly from a working worm farm and methods I personally use and refine.
