What is Living Material?

“Living Material” refers to a biologically active composting culture, containing the essential components needed for successful vermicomposting:

• Composting Worms: Red Wiggler species (Eisenia andrei, Eisenia fetida) that process organic waste into natural fertilizer.
  
• Bedding Material: Moist compost and organic matter providing structure and hydration.
  
• Microbial Life: Beneficial bacteria and fungi that accelerate decomposition.
  
• Nutrient Source: Small amounts of food to sustain worms during transit.

This product represents a composting ecosystem, not the sale or shipment of live animals.
