I had spent about the last 2 weeks watching videos and googling everything I possibly could about worm farming... I didn't want anything but to be able to supply my husband and I with fishing worms (we live at the lake) I finally decided (after reading MANY MANY reviews on Uncle Jim's worm farm!) I would call and see if they could answer the many questions I still had about even starting my worm farm and just "how" they answered them (even if they would) we all know CUSTOMER SERVICE IS EVERYTHING!!! WELL....... Let me tell ya I was NOT disappointed!! Not even for a second!! When I first called I explained to the very sweet lady that I was such a "newbie" I probably will have ALOT of stupid questions!! She NEVER HESITATED answered every single "stupid" question I had ... She helped me decide on the type, and amount I would probably need to suit "my needs" the best! , But gave me all the options at the same time! There wasn't ONE question I had she didn't have an answer for!!! Very knowledgeable!!!! I just wanted to thank her for all her help today with for me was a very important decision FOR ME!!! I'm sorry I forgot her name!! But thank you again Sweetie for all your help!! As of right now I am waiting for my first order of 100% guaranteed European night crawlers!!!! "As for me and my worms I think we found our worm needs home" thanks again uncle Jim's stay blessed! Most sincerely. Mrs....
Read moreI recently moved into a new home that had a compost bin and wanted to get some worms for it. I've never purchased worms before and was kind of shocked at how expensive they were. After research - that's just the going price and Uncle Jim's is actually one of the most affordable ones you can find. I ordered, and they were quickly shipped out and I found myself with a bag of 1K worms! I did as the directions said... poured some water on them and then just added them to my bin, where they're even ever since. I'm not worm expert (or compost expert) but they seem to be thriving! Whenever I add and turn the composed I see some and they appear to be very active!
The only odd thing was that I got an email about my order going through a couple weeks after I received them, so I was nervous that they might have charged me twice or that I had accidentally subscribed to a subscription - But I called, got through right away to a REAL PERSON who was super nice and assured me it was just a system flaw and I wasn't charged twice. It actually made me feel even better about the company having talked with a real person who worked there who seemed like a happy, welcoming person who treated me like mu business meant something. I'd definitely feel good about buying from...
Read moreMy kids love playing in the yard digging up worms. We also garden so I thought hey, let's buy a farm. We got the big kit from Jim's. I also ordered 1000 nightcrawlers. Setup was easy, materials are okay, all plastic but it makes it easy. The problem with this company is you really have to count your worms. We paid for 1000 nightcrawlers and they came in two bags. My 11 year old with small hands was able to hold all the worms in each bag in her hand. We didn't sit and count each one but a quick eyeball with them laid out there was at most 500 total. So I messaged the company. They said they would send us 500 more. Those came Wednesday. We actually counted and there was 244 worms in the bag. I didn't bother messaging again. It was clear to me what's going on here. Overall was it worth the $300 invested, yes, my kids and garden will benefit. However, if you buy from here I caution you to count what...
