The worms can eat the clemantis - but only when it's been chopped down and cut up smaller

Your worms will happily eat your clematis but if you have a lot of shoots it may take a while. Composting may be a better idea for some of it.

The mincer is a great idea, it will turn all food scraps into fabulous worm food.
