As part of our session Kieron from The Country Trust told us some amazing facts about worms. 

There are 5500 species of worm, 29 native to UK.

We found out that worms like to eat soil and dead leaves, plants and food scraps.

They help the soil by creating tunnels that increase the amount of air and water that gets into the soil. They need to be get moist, when it is hot they go deep underground. They don’t have lungs so they breathe through their skin.
