See What's Possible With Biological Soil Restoration

Biological Composting might seem like just a nice tooktool, but it has the power to bring back life to degraded landscapes by regenerating the soil biology of an ecosystem.

Value

What Makes this Program Worth it?
 
Consultations with Biological and Composting Professionals are expensive. You could spend thousands of dollars on one-on-one consultations and still not get results.  You could also spend tens of thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours experimenting with your own systems and make mistakes that could cost you precious time and money.  Instead of going at it alone,  we want to help you with learning and gaining experience alongside a motivated group of people just like you.
 
The Compost Academy team created the live program to help clients of every size, from small landscapers, to farms across hundreds of acres.   This program was designed to help cut your learning curve and get you results based on your own actions, so you can start implementing biological systems that will cut toxic chemicals, cut costs, and help you get better results on your land faster.    We want to teach you the artform of Biological Composting.
 

Start Your Journey to Soil Mastery

Why This Program Works:
This program is not about endless theory, It's about doing. Each week builds on the last—first, you learn the fundamentals: soil biology, scanning for microorganism, and the principles that make biologically effective compost.  Then we'll dive into practical lessons: selecting the right materials, constructing effective compost and extract systems, and troubleshooting common pitfalls. You'll be able to learn at your own pace, and get the support of a group that will challenge you to realize your vision for healthy fertile soil.
 
Our curriculum is structured to ensure you’re not only consuming content but actively applying it, resulting in  tangible results that save you time, money, and get you outcomes on your land.
