May I interrupt this newsletter with a message from our sponsor – well, not actually a sponsor but a company you should be aware of in your gardening and birding adventures.
It’s Uncle Jim’s Worm Farm.
Over the past 10 or 15 years, I have dealt with numerous pet stores and worm companies as I always supplement my bluebirds’ diets with meal worms, especially at nesting time. My bluebirds have come to expect it and that’s one reason I have the lovely creatures in my yard each year. I also feed the meal worms to my frogs.
The meal worms from UJWF are simply the best. They are larger than their competition in size and lightning quick shipping assures that the worms are fresh, healthy and will last in your refrigerator until they’re all gone.
I ordered 5,000 mealies from UJWF last Friday, they waited until Monday to ship (so they wouldn’t get hung up at a warehouse over the weekend) and they delivered them on Tuesday.
UJWF also sells those composting red wigglers that I wrote about last week You can buy mini-worm farm and raise them yourself, or buy a bag of worms only, but these worms can work miracles in flowerbeds, gardens and mulch piles.
Go to unclejimswormfarm.com for more details – but they’re the best source. By far.
