Alan, you can buy dried molasses by the bag at feed stores.
The only way I have been able to keep worms around is to feed them weekly by hole composting kitchen scraps, coffee grounds, etc directly in my garden beds.
There is a guy in Mesa who has outside worm bins year around. When I get more time I will post more about him. Interesting guy...interesting property...I just took a tour of his place two weeks ago.
