bokashi workshop

We will cover application guidelines on the bokashi method for preparing your soil whether in late fall, during the winter, or early spring. 

We will make Activated EM (i.e., the bokashi microbes, aka bokashi spray) which is one of the main microbial applications to soil and organic matter (including fall leaves, plant clippings, twigs/branches, and food waste). 

How to use the bokashi microbes to improve your soil, as well as, do non-food-waste bokashi composting. 

As part of the LUNGS Harvest Arts Festival, 9/20/2024–9/29/2024, lungsnyc.org.

Rain or Shine. 

In this bokashi workshop, learn about applications to gardening, as well as, food waste and composting. We will make two of the fundamental components of the bokashi method: bokashi sprinkle (also bokashi bran or wheat bran bokashi) and bokashi spray (also Activated EM or bokashi microbes). For further information (definitions and explanations), see bokashiresearch.org/bokashi-glossary. 

The bokashi workshop will take place at the Crazy for Composting event during Breakout Sessions 2:15–3:45 pm.
