I’ve had numerous calls concerning B&B
going belly up and what were other options for their worms. Come to find out the owner had a heart
attack and died. His wife no
longer wanted to keep the business.
At the National Small Farm Trade Show and
Conference last November, a gentleman with B&B came to my exhibit and
visited with me about B&B. In
Jan of this year, he sent me a letter saying he had broken off from B&B and
had started his own business. His
info is at http://www.organicsystemsinc.com/ A lady who called my office said she had been
talking with CRS about contracting raising worms. I had not heard of them. Here is their info http://www.crsnv.com/main.shtml I have no expertise or comments about either of
these operations. If anyone else
does or you know of other operations, please pass it along. debi kelly MAC Debi Kelly, Project Manager Missouri Alternatives Center 531 Clark Hall Columbia MO 65211-4423 573-882-1905 (800-433-3704 MO only) 573-884-4336 - fax kellyd@umsystem.edu http://agebb.missouri.edu/mac "There's no need to sustain the farm if

preparing a two day series of seminars for the benefit of the individuals who
became involved with the failed B&B Worm business. Several thousand
folks, about 40% farmers, bought into the failed venture to raise worms for
B&B of Oklahoma. Since B&B filed bankruptcy a few weeks ago these
people stand to lose substantial investments. |
