Compost worms are a great way to make your own fertilizer for organic gardening, and they are equally as good for recycling food waste at home. The system will continuously create both liquid and solid fertilizer and close the food-waste loop.

The Subpod Composting System is a great way to compost right in your garden beds! You use worms to break down your food waste and in turn you get worm castings to use in your garden and in your houseplants. If you don’t need a raised garden bed you can plant your Subpod right in the ground! They have several different sizes and set ups. So small space gardeners and large space gardeners both have options! Use my code THETHRIFTEDPLANTER FOR 10% off of your order! Or shop through my link no code r

Geoff is back with our seventh compost turn. If you're wondering what all the excitement is about, it's because this compost is a slow burn 🔥💚🔥 based on the 18-day Berkeley Method. This method reduces composting time by using a fast, high-temperature approach while still producing quality compost that is rich in nutrients and diverse beneficial organisms. #permaculture #discoverpermaculture #timelapse #compost #fastcompost #quickcompost #hotcompost #berkeleymethod #fertility #organicfertilize

This quick hot compost pile comprises one-third brown carbon, one-third high nitrogen green waste, and one-third manure. We regularly aerate it by turning it, evenly distributing the temperature by inverting it, and maintaining good moisture levels by adding water if it is too dry or carbon if it is too wet. Why? Because combining those ingredients with these actions creates the ideal environment for microorganisms to thrive, thus fast-tracking soil fertility. At the end of the process, 30-50% o

In January, Geoff released a video about controlling weeds in his summer perennial maincrop garden beds at Zaytuna Farm. You can see the progress in this latest video update, where the cover crop Lablab (Lablab purpureus) has suppressed the weeds. Lablab's vigorous growth and dense foliage help smother out competing weeds while improving the soil with its leguminous nitrogen-fixing abilities. Lablab is a bi-annual plant that often perennializes, so it reseeds but is controlled by frost. To watch

We have an international and diverse crew of permaculture students here hard at work developing this site into abundance using design principles learnt from the recent PDC course. As we move into winter, the cooler weather and promise of rain brings more favorable growing conditions here in the desert, so we’re busy propagating, planting, and making compost.
