Nice stuff, sadly - not for my latitude. Most likely I couldn't keep these critters alive beyond October, and would have trouble restarting the culture until May. Maybe with heavy thermal insulation and the vermiculture filter somewhat underground... but then again, sometimes when the snow melts, everything that's underground and is not sealed, gets flooded.

You could bury it depending on your location you may not need to go past 3ft/1m deep.

ooh this looks super cool. Clean, potable drinking water can be scarce.

I think he said it's suitable for irrigation. I don't know if I'd drink it without some sterilization.
