Aristides Guarnizo

Aristides Guarnizo’s farm in the mountains of Tarqui in Colombia, uses a unique process.The cycle begins with the creation of a compost tea concoction that is diluted and applied to the farm.This concoction supports plant health health of soil, which then influences the fermentation process. Bacteria and yeasts grown and accumulated during fermentation create a culture call a scoby.The scoby is then introduced into the compost pile and cycle continues.
