Compost & Compost Tea

We have a fully licensed five acre compost site where we make all our own compost and compost teas. We test them in the laboratory to verify and boost the microorganisms and nutrients that benefit plant health.

Compost tea is a water extract of compost that is cold brewed. It contains soluble nutrients, enzymes, and hormones and a complex set of organisms which are key to the health of the soil, plants and then the animals.

Compost and Compost Tea are spread on the whole farm four times a year and biodynamic preparations at least twice a year. We aim to put 10 tonnes per acre of compost on our land this year.

The site is currently licensed to accept 40,000 tonnes of green waste per year. The main mix to make our compost consists of green waste, farmyard manure, woodchip and bio-dynamic preparations which takes approximately eight weeks to process. We are also accredited with PASS 100 and the quality protocol.
