Hi Katie!!!!! So nice to hear from you---always!!! Hope you're well and getting ready to enjoy the holidays. Enough cream cheese to make the won ton plump but still able to seal the edges. In the air fryer---one side till light brown then flip to the other side till light brown and serve with your fav dipping sauce! Enjoy mi amor!
I would love to learn more about how to setup a manure composting container like that. We have lots of horse manure that I'd like to compost down faster to keep up with it. Our state only allows 500 sqft of composting space per the EPA so if you are able to compost manure down to compost in 4 weeks with that setup (4 bins) that would work perfectly for our operation. How can I learn more about how the forced air setup works? Great video by the way, thank you for sharing your process!
Good morning, Steve, from Windermere, Florida zone 9b 🇺🇸 Great tutorial 👌 I do the same thing with bones and broth. But You've given me more ideas. Excellent 🌷Peggy🌷
Hi Steve, I just found your channel. What a find! I'm a Gardener for 50+ years and raising worms since 2009. My husband and I have been married for almost 50 years and take turns in the kitchen. He's more gourmet and even worked as a cook at a couple restaurants at Disney World. I'm more simple, but delicious. I started my channel a couple years ago and find it a good daily stimulation during covid and retirement 👍 I watched your visit to the worm farm and found it fascinating. California could certainly use more effort with your lack of rains. Take care and good luck with your channel 👩🌾👍
I have been researching how to compost for a little while and am curious about how healthy the compost can be even when using manure from animals that have been treated with medications...I imagine most horses and the dairy cattle whose manure is used for this place in particular, would have some traces of these medications in them so I guess I am wondering if this can cause any damage to the compost or if it does not impact it at all?
I'm new to this , and I love your content.. The products at the grocery stores is not good for human consumption .. I can't live off over priced / withered fruit and vegetables with very little nutrients left in them I love your story of how it all started... The universe had you right where you were needed.. isnt that amazing how things in life unfold ..
Question, those large composters for the manure are they just huge bins with carbon and nitrogen inputs that make them heat up or is the manure heated by electric means?
Yikes, living in AZ maybe the misting system over head , since i dont have a mulcher i pre freeze the food particles to soften, ill see how it goes. Great episode.
I will feed in sections and create a letter n so that it is a continuos flow and worms are not damaged. i will have the beds connected by a tunnel so that worms can move from bed to bed
Start procesing restaurant waste and humanure and get your country cleaned u?????You can sell the humanure vermicompost to Christmas tree farmers or lawn care. Think ! Use recycled wine bottles for the packaging that can be returned to you. Then you are really green
I truly love how he spoke about everything completed comes and filters out from the bottom how are these worm beds made to keep the flow rotate out from the bottom I think that it's a great idea just wish to learn more about this
Hi Jack! Is this THE JACK? Hope you're doing well too in this crazy world. Great comments on this episode and still coming in. I'll write to you on your email address if it's still the same. Chef
Had a worm farm in 1975 , built on a shoestring, went great for 8 months, then the shoestring broke. But now, I m thinking 🤔 maybe it’s time to begin again. Just got my bail out check so who knows.
I have 300 hectare project site in Tunisia...semi-arid, probably less arid than Sonoma Valley. I will start my earthworm farm to generate vermi-compost to revitalise the land. I have the Water Technology (Freezing Water Deslination) and we are right next to the sea. Water, land and worms. Sunlight and air are free. Te worms work for free. Plenty of feedstock free too.
Wonderfull Eddie. Best of luck with your project! I would love to come and visit your worm farm sometime. I wish you much success. My mentor for worm farming is Jack Chambers in Sonoma as seen in the video.
