It’s easy if you have the guidance and proven framework to follow. Or your using conventional farming which uses petroleum-based products made by large chemical companies, and possibly recycled bomb material from war. We do not believe these things should be considered organic, because of what the animals are being fed, because of the antibiotics, and because of the mistreatment of the animals. When you’re talking about bone meal and blood meal we’re talking about animals that have been grown in less-than-ideal conditions and when they process them for the table they use the leftover blood bones and feathers to create what they call organic fertilizers. What’s actually in the fertilizer that you buy at the store? Nature’s pretty perfect if we can just find the balance. If we want to think sustainable we need to think about what we’re putting into the ground to grow our food, how it’s going to affect the ground in the future, how nutritious it’s going to be, what we have for resources already present without having to pillage other resources and to constantly look for new inputs.
At the decimation of our land, forests, and the labor of children. Many fertilizers such as seabird guano, bat guano, fish meal… are less than ethically sourced and produced. Your plants get more nutrients from the compost you make than fertilizer you buy at the store. Keeping your food scraps and green waste out of the dump can be your contribution to ending global warming and we believe this will help you be a better steward to the planet. You can grow incredible veggies utilizing what would normally be waste for you! Like green waste from your yard, leftover scraps from your kitchen, cardboard, paper… Keep it out of the dump – turn it into soil. A major one is that you can turn waste into fertilizer to build living soil. There are a ton of benefits to making your own compost rather than going to a garden store and buying fertilizer.
Mindset Shift #3: You Can GROW Your Own Fertilizer You’re basically eating sh!t… Not to mention the amount of methane released into our atmosphere through large municipal composting operations, which is contributing to climate change, and has many other ecological impacts. They’re claiming that because it reaches high temperatures and sterilizes itself that it can be used to grow organic food. But what you really need to know – what are they using for their nitrogen source? More times than not, and I would confidently say, in MOST waste management facilities, they’re processing the green waste with porta potty material and excess sewer sludge. Now a lot of people are confused and think it’s awesome to get all that material back from the landfill as compost - often given to the neighborhoods for free. Why send all of your paper towels, scrap paper, cardboard… to the dump when it can be building soil for your garden? Instead of wasting it by collecting it in those big “green waste” bags, and leaving them on the curb every week… you can utilize it as awesome green material for composting and building soil! Stuff that would normally be wasted and go to the landfill, like leaves, grass clippings, weeds… Many people call that “green waste.” We call it green waste because you’re wasting it. Mindset Shift #2: Stop Wasting Your Waste With living cold composting techniques, that utilize the symbiosis of many creatures, you will create consistent and reliable living compost that gives you the freedom to seed your garden with insanely productive microbes & never have to buy fertilizer again. It is often devoid of the biological activity that you need to grow healthy living soil! That sort of compost really needs to be re-inoculated with life before using in your garden Usually in a situation like that they move back in from the cooler parts of the pile eventually, but it’s not uncommon for compost facilities to get compost straight out of the hot pocket, which is inert. Thermophillic compost gets hot enough to actually kill all the soil microbes in it. When the atmosphere is in balance, that’s not necessarily a bad thing. You’ll no longer have to rely on your hardware or garden store, and the quality of the products they stock their shelves with (did you know that your “organic” fertilizer can be filled with manure from chicken factory farms?Īnd that most city compost programs are thermophillic, which is the chemical reaction type of compost that usually heats up as high as 160☏! It also produces quite a bit of methane and other gases into the atmosphere. Building your own soil puts you in complete control of your garden.
