"Worm Tea"
How We Sustainably Fertilize Our Organic, Regenerative Farm
1. NUTRIENT-RICH SOIL AMENDMENT
Provides plants with a balanced mix of essential nutrients. Enhances soil fertility, promotes healthy plant growth, and improves overall plant vigor.
2. INCREASED NUTRIENT AVAILABIITY
Microorganisms break down organic matter and release nutrients that are easily absorbed. This improves nutrient availability and uptake by plants, leading to enhanced growth and productivity.
3. IMPROVED SOIL STRUCTURE and WATER RETENTION
Helps improve soil structure by increasing the aggregation of soil particles. This enhances soil aeration, water infiltration, and water-holding capacity, leading to better plant root development and reduced water runoff.
4. ENHANCED PLANT DISEASE AND PEST RESISTANCE
Beneficial microogranisms help suppress pathogens and pests in the soil. They compete with disease-causing organisms and produce compounds that inhibit their growth, thereby reducing the risk of plant diseases.
5. ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY
A sustainable and eco-friendly option for plant nutrition. Made from organic waste, such as food scraps and plant residues. Reduces landfill overflow and promotes recycling. Contributes to soil health and biodiversity.
6. REDUCED USE OF CHEMICAL FERTILIZERS AND PESTICIDES
Helps minimize the environmental impact associated with the production and use of chemical fertilizers. Additionally, improved soil health can reduce the reliance on chemical pesticides.
6 KEY BENEFITS OF VERMICOMPOST TEA
Our own organic waste is fed to our army of millions of Red Wiggler worms.
The worm castings (aka worm poop), are bagged and blended along with other organic nutrients, and then brewed in our 1,000-gallon system.
And finally fertigated directly to our regenerative, zero-waste farm.

NATURAL FERTILIZER
Our farm is fertigated by the legendary benefits of worm castings (aka manure), which we brew in liquid form to create microbially-rich, fast-acting, 100% OMRI-listed organic ‘worm tea,’ also know as vermicompost tea.
