Composting worms

We found hundreds of worms under a broken compost bin in our community garden in Cambridge. We observed carefully how they were clumped in fairly wet areas of heavy-ish organic material that was infused with lots of straw. It smelled great so we knew the worms and the system were happy. We brought them home and arranged them in a bin, trying to maintain the "feel" and smell of the ecosystem we took them out of.
