Our story
building healthier soils naturally
About our farm
Meadow Hill Premium Worm Castings LLC was founded by Alan Ahnfeldt and Tahir Rao with a shared vision of producing premium, locally made soil amendments that help growers build healthier soils and stronger plants.
Located in the beautiful foothills of Placerville, California, our operation transforms carefully selected organic feedstocks into nutrient-rich worm castings and worm tea through a natural vermicomposting process.
