Want Beneficial Microbes? Try Compost Tea

When we arrived at Healing Grounds Nursery in Goleta, California  to meet Biodynamic grower Oscar Carmona, it was a hot summer day.  Oscar stood outside watering the organic starts he grows, not with water, but with compost tea. We were meeting Oscar to film him making the tea- an excellent soil  and plant amendment. Carmona, owner of Healing Grounds is a knowledgeable horticulturist, seedsman and organic enthusiast who knows pretty much everything there is to know about plants and their needs. We knew he could explain why compost tea is so powerful in its beneficial effects on soil and plant life.  In this short video Oscar Carmona gives a brief introduction to compost tea and why it works. Stay tuned to the Sustainable World YouTube Channel to see Oscar in a “how-to” video explaining step by step how to make the tea.
