Starting a Catawba worm farm shouldn't be that expensive, just need a
little land and a whole lot of Catawba trees.

And they aren't worms - they are caterpillars.


I drink coffee every morning with a group of old farts like myself
(actually I'm the youngest of the old farts) that know everything
there is to know about everything there is to know. So at the coffee
shop this morning I asked: "What's the name of those trees I've got
that y'all keep pickin' those bugs off of?" The half dozen responses I
heard sounded like "Kuh-tawl-puh" to me. So I asked "How do you spell
it?" and all I got back was a bunch of blank stares and people lookin'
at each other lol!
Don't know if that helps or not but that's all I know -shrug-
