Question Are dead worms good for your garden? Why or why not?

Answer Have you ever dug around in the soil in the woods? Notice how the soil is dark and rich looking? You can imagine if you took that soil to your garden it would make your plants very happy and they would grow strong and healthy. Well, all that nice soil is because things that were once alive fell to the ground and started to rot whether it was leaves, wood, dead animals, insects and even worms. It all rots and turns into nice rich soil.

Merry Christmas!
