@Jim Flach I went to a week long course in Tucson. It is given by the Watershed Management Group. Check out their website: watershedmg.org. Lots of good information on their site. I went mostly to learn so I could advocate and promote water harvesting as we live in a desert. Surprisingly we don’t have that much going on with water harvesting in our area as one would expect since we live in the desert. Thanks for the welcome and your comment.

@Dennis Wichter thanks for the greeting. Take me a little while to figure out how to use this site. Love learning new skills and things and love to share what little knowledge I have!
Composting
Composting. I started a new compost pile using shredded cardboard, shredded paper, egg shells and coffee grounds. Made the pile adding coffee grounds between layers. Never heated up during a few weeks. So, I moved the pile, wet down each layer and added more coffee grounds. That was like 3 or 4 days ago. Yesterday it was 120 degrees, today it was 140 degrees. It should start decomposing now!
Worm Compost Trench
If worms were concentrated in a garden bed, would the worms feed on live plant roots?

Worms only eat decaying organic matter. Not live plant roots.

Add some cardboard for bedding. Coffee grounds are good too but add cardboard for sure then! I grow my compost worms in old bathtubs. It can get 115 here in the summer and 20 in the winter. They have survived outdoors for 4 years or so!
