This week we are conducting an experiment with bokashi food scraps... in a hot compost pile! Join us to learn about bokashi composting and how it can be used as a method for collecting/preparing food scraps for the compost pile. We will be talking about effective microorganisms (EM), bokashi bran, and the fermentation process. After that, we will build a hot compost pile using bokashi food scraps along with other locally sources materials that might otherwise be considered “waste”.
