HOW IT ALL STARTED

Wormtech Pty Ltd is a 100% Australian owned company, producing and supplying 100% Australian compost and worm products. We have 20 years hands-on experience in farming, growing crops such as cotton, wine grapes, citrus, seed crops, vegetables and other horticulture in the Riverina, NSW. After years of using chemical fertilisers we decided to incorporate some natural fertilisers into our farming practices. The increase in quality, production and overall plant and soil health was obvious. Our interest in chemical free fertilisers grew and particularly our interest in the benefits of compost and compost worms and their by-products.
