Composting and Cultivating

We are so thankful for each of our amazing local composting partners who are committed to ecological hospitality.

We are excited to not only offer composting servicing on a pickup basis for contracted local businesses, but also to offer a drop-and-swap composting service for household subscription members and small business owners. We now offer locally-sourced regenerative compost, bagged in repurposed coffee sacks or bulk.

Enoree Grove utilizes both a dry-stack composting process, combining coffee grounds and food waste with local wood chips. Finished compost is lab-tested for safety and stability and is consistently the top-tier product, Enoree Grove Compost.

Using our Enoree Grove Compost as bedding, we feed red wigglers to create premier worm castings (vermicast) which is now also available for purchase directly from the farm or at a number of local plant shops. We are happy to sell our Enoree Grove Worm Castings and/or a vermicomposting kit to get you started on your own vermicompost lab (kits come complete with Enoree Grove Compost bedding and red wigglers in a bin with instructions for feeding).

For inquiries regarding composting services, or purchasing finished Enoree Grove Compost, Enoree Grove Worm Castings, vermicomposting kits, or red wigglers, email us at enoreegrove@gmail.com.

Stewardship and Hope

Like so much in agriculture, composting is rich not only in nutrients but also in metaphors of humility, brokenness, hope, and new life. Our goal is to steward well and to help others in our community accomplish that same goal.

A highlight in 2025 was coming alongside the women in residence at Jasmine Road for a "Plants & Poetry" project. Michelle and a handful of women worked together to create a raised-bed tea garden full of mints, chamomile, and tea-friendly flowers, as well as a bed of strawberries and a bed of fresh greens in the backyard of one of the residential homes. They then sat and shared life stories, composing poetry and discussing the beautiful metaphors between composting and growing, composing poetry, and re-creating a life of hope.

produces so much

Beauty

In addition to creating Enoree Grove Compost and Enoree Grove Worm Castings, we're thrilled to have been able to create a handful of part-time jobs for agrarian-minded individuals looking for supplemental income. All positions are currently filled, but if you are interested in future part-time work or volunteer opportunities, we'd love to hear from you.

Our "Little-Red-Hen Community Garden" is a cooperative project that allows members who contribute in the work to share in the harvest. Let us know if you're interested in growing with us.
