Microbial Earth Farms is an Austin-based business dedicated to educating the public about soil restoration through the use of beneficial soil microbes and other natural soil amendments, such as Mycorrhizae, Azomite and calcium.

We produce our own high value humified compost and compost (tea) extract. Also, we have a strong focus on bringing awareness to the benefits/importance of composting by providing access to many different composting systems such as Black Soldier Fly, Bokashi, worm and our Better Outdoor Composting Systems (BOCK).  We like to joke, "Let microbes do the work, and you can be a lazy gardener!"

Please subscribe to our blog posts and RSS feed to get the latest updates on new retail locations, bokashi tricks, and education events.  With RSS, any new posts to the blog will be sent straight to your computer as they become available, so you don't have to do the work - kinda like microbes!

+   We have SOIL TEST KITS from teh Texas Plant & Soil Lab in Edinburg available at the farmer's markets.  TPSL in Edinburg is the best lab at showing you the organically available nutrients in your soil, as well as providing a detailed explanation of what is in your soil and what ammendments you will be needing.  Click here to reserve your test kit at any of our farmer's market locations.  You can also download the test kit forms by clicking on this link.  Click here for the TPSL page for ordering their various other tests.
