AERATED TEAS

What are Aerated Teas?

A brewed water extract of microbes, which allows the proliferation of beneficial organisms in a short period of time through an aerated process (usually pumping Oxygen with a small air bubbles system).

There are several ways or recipes for make this process getting same result: encourage aerobic microbe’s activity and/or their biomass; so this gives us a high range of use, such as reproduction and activation of microbiology present in the compost, native microorganism present in the forest or farm or just reproduction focused in specific aerobic microorganisms whose we desire to deal with.

As aerobic systems have more energy efficiency, this product will obtain an average of 36 molecules of ATP from each molecule of sugar as an energy source through the process; getting the energy from an external source (adding Oxygen by bubbling it through the solution).

This product has to be use in a short period of time as it losses its stability and properties in a few days. 

What are they for?

To bring back soil-plant fertility through adding beneficial microbiology to the system (farm, plot or backyard) reducing pest and diseases, encouraging microbiologic and mineral balance by the presence of both elements in symbiosis.

 

How do they work?

Adding a wide (or specific) range of beneficial microbes on the plant tissues and/or soil, making a positive effect on both immunologic systems.

Depending recipes and process a huge microbiological diversity could be found on this brews, such as bacteria, fungi, protozoa and nematodes making an important and positive effect in biological and minerals available issues to the plant.

  • Introduction to Permaculture

    6-7th May 2017 

    This weekend course offers a chance to get to grips with the core principles of permaculture, its origins and its applications. Permaculture has developed into something that can be applied to every aspect of our lives from self-development to agriculture….so what’s it all about?

    It is a set of design principles, inspired by natural self-sustaining systems and based upon the ethics of caring for people, planet and our combined future. In our introduction you’ll learn about these principles and how they are relevant to your own situation, and how to apply them to your daily life. The course will include the following subjects:

    Earthcare: Permaculture Principles, Linking – creating systems

    Peoplecare: Communication, Communities

    Fairshares: Ethics, Resources

    Methods: Observation – land and people, Design methods

    Gardening: Composting, mulching, polycultures, perennials

    Caroline has been teaching permaculture at Ragmans Lane Farm and other centres around the country for several years and originally trained and worked with Patrick Whitefield. Caroline has a background in market gardening, horticulture, smallholding and design and teaches with clarity and experience.

    Matt is the owner of Ragmans Lane Farm and a permaculture pioneer in the UK. He has gained experience in many fields over the years and is now focussed on developing holistic management practices with his ‘beyond organic’ juice orchards. He has been teaching permaculture for many years and teaches with engaging knowledge and enthusiasm.
