Part 1 of 3.
An intro to the basics of bokashi gardening and soil care (towards creating a living soil). Learn the two main ways to make bokashi: the bokashi sprinkle with wheat bran and the bokashi spray (a liquid bokashi ferment). We will also make EM•5 foliar spray which is used to spray on plants and trees, as well as treat the soil.
In Part 2 (May 10), the two bokashi ferments, bokashi sprinkle and bokashi spray, will be ready to use. We will use them to treat food waste to make bokashi food waste, and also make EM FPE (Fermented Plant Extract).
In Part 3 (May 31), the bokashi food waste (fermented food waste) and EM FPE will be ready to use. We will apply them to the soil, as well as the EM•5 made in part 1.
