The folk song We Dig Worms is one of the ways that singer Zach Ladin has found to remind listeners young and old of the importance of all creatures in nature. Ladin, who has an academic background in urban ecology, uses his music to educate children about nature, as well as promote an appreciation for all the things that Earth and nature gives us – even worms and bugs!

In this song, Ladin invites listeners to appreciate all of the things on the Earth that support nature’s ecosystem, such as worms, insects, birds, plants, the sun, and clean air and water. We Dig Worms is part of an environmental education project called Nature Jams that Ladin started in order to inspire people through upbeat music promoting good health, natural living, and friendship.
