5 Ideas on How to Use Bokashi in the Garden

The Japanese word ‘Bokashi’ means “fermented organic matter”. This method of composting involves layering kitchen scraps (vegetables, dairy, meat, and fruits) with bokashi bran inside a bokashi bin.

When looking at bokashi vs compost, bokashi composting is an ‘anaerobic’ fermentation process which means the microbes thrive in the absence of air. This is why it is done in a sealed container. The end result is a pre-compost that is then buried in the garden and turns into incredibly nutrient-rich soil!
