I got this image of a grown person screaming and running away :-) I have never seen an earthworm in these pots (I would not mind that tho, they keep the soil loose) but I have seen these little tiny white ones that gross me out big time. I just have to wash the lettuce ALOT and try not to think too much about it. When I grew beets in the ground not only did we have chipmunks we also had grubs, those are 10Xs worse than worms! yuck!

I'd be extremely happy if I had a veg garden like yours, even though I scream (and run away) every time I find worms! Nika, everything looks SO fresh!

Sorry that things are not garden-friendly in your new home! Maybe you can do some hydroponic basil inside? I LOVE fresh picked basil! bx: i am glad you enjoyed it!

I had forgotten what "wet earth" smelled like and the feeling of anticipation of a harvest. Most of all I miss my basil plants, and the home made pesto.
