Malibu Compost is more than just another company. It’s our family, friends, and rescue animals. It’s our farmers who strive to nurture their animals and land amidst an environment of increasingly massive factory farms. Most importantly, it’s the passion we share with our customer in helping to protect our environment through the use of Biodynamic principles. Sustaining people, sustaining planet, sustaining commerce. Malibu Compost strives to be ecologically and socially responsible

in everything we do because healing our world means fixing every part of it.

Not all composts are the same. Malibu Compost products are hand-crafted, using only fully finished compost that is made according to traditional Biodynamic practices.

Our products are proudly Demeter-certified Biodynamic®, the highest agricultural standard in the world.

Next, specific Biodynamic preparations are stirred using a three step flow form, each one with a specific intent and function within your plant’s systems. These liquefied preparations are then applied by hand to each batch using a backpack sprayer.

Prior to packaging, each batch is hand-screened to less than 1/4” to allow for improved dissolution. Then each individual tea bag is carefully filled by hand, tied at the top, and hand-packed for shipping to our customers.

Why composT Tea?

Gardeners are discovering the ease of caring for the entire garden with safe and non-toxic compost teas. Compost teas introduce colonies of beneficial bacteria and fungi to soil and foliage, providing necessary nutrients while creating stronger, more resilient plants.

Malibu Compost compost teas start with a base of our certified Biodynamic® compost. Each batch is then carefully hand-crafted. First, we apply a microbial compost tea derived from our own Biodynamic compost and a few extra treats.

Malibu Compost “spokescow” Bu enjoying the pasture with her first son, Baby Bu.

Biodynamic agriculture began in the 1920’s and is the grandfather of the modern organic movement. While organic agriculture rightly aims to halt the devastation caused by humans, it has no cure for the ailing Earth. Biodynamic agriculture provides the cure by treating the soil as a living organism rather than a support system. And, like any living organism, the better the food it consumes, the stronger it will become. That’s where Malibu Compost comes in.

MOOOO....I’m Bu. YES! I am no longer a number stapled to my ear. I have a name and people who

love me. I get to stand under trees in a pasture with my sons and fellow cows. I get to smell

flowers and wet grass--which is light years from where I came from standing in poop up to my you

know what. I have been given a second chance at life in my role as Malibu Compost “spokescow”

and unofficial ambassador for animal rights. On behalf of dairy cows everywhere, I just wanna

say, thanks for supporting us.

“Biodynamic agriculture... is necessary not only for the sake of somehow improving agriculture, but so that human life on earth can continue at all, since as physical beings we depend on what the earth provides.” -rudolf steiner

DETOX YOUR LAWN™coming fall 2014....a revolution in lawn care

Why Bu’s Blades™? Because it’s time to detox our lawns. The health of our children, ourselves and our planet de-

pend on it. We love our grassy spaces, but not the addiction to chemical and synthetic lawn care.

Our lawns, our pets, the bees, the birds, the butterflies and the microbial life within our soil deserve more.
