Let’s make COMPOST TEA! Brewing compost tea is our final step in maximizing the abundance of microbial diversity in our vermicast for soil-building efforts. To brew the tea, we create a perfect environment for our microbes composed of water, food, oxygen, and a place to breed and live with the right pH and temperature. We submerge our vermicompost into pristine well water (no chlorine or flouride that will inhibit microbial growth), some biodynamic preps, and compost catalyst. Over the next 16-24 hrs, we aerate the tank as the solution brews, and the microbial populations explode, increasing by ~500% — we consistently measure populations of about 1 billion microorganisms per milliliter (20 drops) of tea. Through the brewing process (without heat), these microbes are extracted into the “tea”, which we can then intentionally apply across the farm by injecting the tea directly into our irrigation system, spraying it topically on our plants, using it for root dips or seed soaks before planting, and more.. Compost tea has scientifically proven benefits of increasing root and plant growth, decreasing fungal disease, and increasing plants’ resistance to harmful organisms.

Adding browns to your worm bin is one of the easiest ways to prevent odors and pests 🪱📦 Start with what you already have. The cardboard box your worm farm arrived in, including the instruction sheet, can become worm bedding. Remove ALL plastic tape, shipping labels, stickers, and other plastic first. Some municipalities and retailers collect thin plastic film for separate recycling, so check what is available locally. My grocery store collects mine ♻️ Common “browns” for vermicomposting include: • Shredded corrugated cardboard • Plain paper and paper bags • Paper egg cartons • Toilet paper and paper towel tubes • Dry leaves 🍂 • Uncoated, non-glossy paper We recommend starting around 75% browns to 25% greens. Browns are carbon-rich materials that absorb excess moisture and help maintain airflow throughout the worm bin. This matters because a wet, compacted bin can create low-oxygen conditions where odor-producing microbes thrive. This is a brand-new worm farm with coco coir, ½ an avocado pit, and one banana peel, so it does not need additional browns mixed throughout yet. I’m just adding a few fresh layers of shredded cardboard across the surface. That top layer acts as a physical barrier over the food scraps, helps regulate moisture, and makes the bin less attractive to fruit flies and other pests. Keeping food buried and covered also reduces odors from decomposing scraps. A healthy worm bin should smell earthy, not like rotting food 🌱 Start small, keep food scraps buried and covered, and add more as your worm population adjusts. #WormComposting #vermicomposting #fallgarden #fallgardening

🪱 How We Feed Our Worms – Part 3 Now it’s time to feed our flow-through bin! We place the food into a trench down the center of the bin and cover it back up. This helps keep odors down while the worms make their way over to their next meal. Our daughter wasn’t quite as enthusiastic about watching this part 😂💚 Next up: We’ll show you why we cover the bin with bubble wrap and landscape fabric! Want to see the full process from start to finish? The complete video is available on our YouTube channel! #vermicomposting #wormfarming #wormtips #soilhealth #SustainableGardening

The vermicomposting process from food waste and paper waste all the way to finished product ready for farmers. Locally produced soil amendments are an important part of a sustainable and resilient local food system. Our vermicomposting social enterprise is one of the ways we generate revenue for all of the other activities of Ma'ona Community Garden like the Giving Garden which grows ans gives away fresh fruits and veggies to schools and community food pantries. #vermicomposting #maonacommunitygarden

🥲We can’t catch a break! These composting folks are demanding. But really, did you know that worms can eat your food scraps? 🪱This method of composting, or vermicomposting, uses worms to compost food scraps. 🪱The best kind of worms to use is Eisenia Fetida (aka “Red Wigglers”). These worms are incredible eaters of food scraps! 🪱They eat half their own weight every day, so even a small bin of red worms will produce several pounds of all-natural, chemical-free fertilizer to mix into potting soil or garden mulch. 🪱These worms can be easily obtained by purchasing from local suppliers. 🌎Learn more about composting on our website at the link in bio.
