It does sit on the compost in the tray below except if the tray gets really low which is what happened to me. The first one was too full, the second was too empty. I am just learning at the moment. Looks pretty good now. Am just worrying that they’ll get a bit cold over the winter. Should i consider covering them in bubble wrap or something? Thanks for the advice.

With your layered Wormery, do the trays rest on each other, or on the compost on the tray below? Really, you need one with the second design, as then the top tray will stay in contact with the material in the next tray down as it compacts and the worms can continue to migrate upwards. Hope you see great results! :-) Liam Martin www.OriginalOrganics.co.uk Hey there,
