Yes! 🙂

We took an old bath, put a mesh inside on a drainage, place the bath a bit off level so excess liquid goes into drainage and fill it half full with half year old cow manure. This was in late spring last year.
Then we added kitchen scraps on top.
It’s quite full now, everything looks like regular compost now, but it’s not yet finished, worms are turning this into even better black gold (worm castings) – we will wait now for them to process the whole thing.
At the same time we will start the new bath.
This is really good article – http://permaculturenews.org/2015/01/21/updated-worm-farming-at-zaytuna-farm/
