About Ficarro Farms

Ficarro Farms began with a raised garden bed in a suburban backyard. A growing interest in soil, compost, and the small animals involved in decomposition led to worm bins and isopod projects.

That history still shapes what you will find here: live pill bugs, sowbugs, red wigglers, and selected supplies for hands-on observation, habitats, and composting. The shop shows current listings; availability and counts can change.

If you are planning a classroom activity, start with our classroom lab guides. For isopod keeping, see the care sheet; for worm keeping, see Caring for Worms.

For a larger lab order, tell us the species, count, destination, and date through the contact page. We will confirm what the farm can supply before you plan around an order. You can also use that page for product or care questions.
