Beyond Compost, +: Converting Organic Waste Beyond Compost Using Worms ... PLUS

PLUS After a very good run as a guidebook for medium-sized vermiculture, "Beyond Compost" has been updated to include chapters on BIOCHAR Biochar is horticultural charcoal that provides microscopic homes and factories for the microorganisms in vermicompost that you learned about in the first edition. PLUS, the carbon that you bury in your soil will stay there for centuries as sequestered carbon removed from the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. PLUS, a fascinating story of neglected history revealed only recently from the jungles of the Amazon. PLUS, references to research scientists who are convinced that burying biochar in depleted soils may be the solution to the disastrous changes in the climate of our planet. Imagine an organic soil amendment that can be as much as 880 times more effective than typical chemical fertilizers. PLUS, an improved design feature for the VermiHarvester that reduces even more of the tedious work of harvesting your vermicompost.
