Who are we?
Howdy, I'm Miles Pitman- Chief Wurm Wrangler!
thermophylic compost
We heat our compost piles up with a special balance of food waste, mulch, wood chips and water. this balance attracts specific microbe populations. Through the microorganism activity, heat is generated, which accelerate food waste decomposition.
‘Thermo-‘ Greek for “heat” combined with ‘philos’ Greek for “love;” THERMOPHYLIC compost is referencing to the array of bacteria that love breaking down nitrogen and carbon.
mesophilic compost
After the THERMOPHYLIC compost has achieved our desired temperature, we begin the curing stage. At this point, the compost pile ceases further inputs and is brought to ambient temperature over time. During this maturation stage, the thermophilic bacteria population begins to dwindle. This decrease in population and temperature makes way for the mesophilic organisms to thrive.
‘Meso-‘ Greek for “middle” or “medium” and ‘philo’ Greek for “love”.
Earthworms & castings
Earthworms are fed compost for accelerated decomposition. The earthworms’ (Eisenia fetida) gut is highly evolved to house specialized microbes which transform, fragment, and increase surface area of organic materials. The end result is a microbial diverse biochemical composition of worm poop, known as castings.
- Microbial biome for slow release of nutrients
- High levels of humic & coelomic fluids
- Increased moisture retention
- Increased plant available foods
- Soil stabilization (electrically charged aggregate)
