Description

The SCD Happy Farmer 5 Gallon Recycled Plastic Kitchen Composter with Bokashi Kit - Marble White is a unique in house product used to recycle kitchen waste into an organic compost soil conditioner. The most effective method of fermenting is through anaerobic (without oxygen) fermentation. This process prepares the scraps for burial in less than half the time of conventional composting methods without any unpleasant odors.


The Happy Farmer Bokashi Fermentation Kitchen Composter can be easily implemented in an indoor environment making it useful for apartment, school, household, restaurant, business, or wilderness use.


To use the Happy Farmer Kitchen Composter:


  • Simply cut food into small pieces and place into the Happy Farmer Kitchen Composter.
  • In a kitchen compost bucket, apply Happy Farmer Bokashi directly on top of kitchen food waste and close the lid.
  • It is very important to cover the entire surface of food waste with Bokashi. When added, Bokashi will begin a fermentation process that will neutralize odors, increase the mineral content, and prepare food waste to become high quality compost.
  • Repeat the process, until the bucket is full.
  • When the composter is full, let it sit, unopened, for two weeks and ferment.
  • Then mix the fermented food waste with soil and let it compost for another two weeks.
  • In just one month you will have a nutritious plant food that is also rich in beneficial microorganisms.
  • Each composter comes with easy to follow instructions.

When you use Happy Farmer Bokashi to maintain high populations of beneficial and efficient microbes in the soil, they will:


  • Promote germination, flowering, fruiting, and ripening in plants
  • Improve physical, chemical, and biological environments in the soil and help to eliminate soil-borne pathogens and pests
  • Enhance the photosynthetic capacity of plants and ensure better germination and plant establishment
  • Increase the effectiveness of organic materials as fertilizers

The Happy Farmer Kitchen Composter can be placed under the kitchen sink or other convenient location and is perfect for any size household.


Used in conjunction with Happy Farmer Bokashi, the system provides the ideal conditions to activate anaerobic fermentation that accelerates the composting process, while eliminating odors and deterring flies. The Kitchen Composters two unique features, the strainer and spigot, allow the moisture released by the scraps of food waste to be drained out to prevent spoilage. This liquid can be used as a fertilizer or to clean your kitchen and bathroom drains. Composter dimensions are 10L x 10W x 16H inches.


What are Efficient Microbes or EM?
EM is a natural, probiotic technology developed for over 25 years around the world. It is based on beneficial and effective micro organisms ("EM"). The microbes in EM are non-harmful, non-pathogenic, not-genetically-engineered or modified (non-GMO), and not-chemically-synthesized. Based on research and development activities in many countries, EM is increasingly viewed as a means of providing solutions to many problems of food production, depletion of natural resources, environmental pollution, food safety and nutrition, and human and animal health.
