Compost Tea Workshop & Demo

Description

CT Resource Conservation & Development Area (CT RC&D) in partnership with CT Department of Agriculture, CT NOFA, and UConn Extension, launched a Compost Tea Mobile Unit pilot program on five farms through the 2025 growing season. Farmers worked with CT NOFA and UConn Extension staff to learn how to brew, apply, monitor, and test compost tea.
