We Can Co-Create Abundance For All, by starting with source separating food waste and diverting those organic residuals to neighbor and environmentally responsible regional food composting facilities where we’ll transform the "waste" into Magic^bioSoil. We invite YOU to join us in this exciting and noble transition, to co-create abundance for all.

Currently most food waste is going to incinerators, where it is a net energy loss, because most food waste averages about 85% moisture content; or it is going to distant landfills, where it’s potential is also being lost.

When I see ‘a banana peel’, instead of seeing waste, I see the potential for Magic^bioSoil and the vibrantly healthy food that we grow in Magic^bioSoil amended soil.  I can see that "potential" because for many years much of the food that I eat has been grown in Magic^bioSoil , made by our composting food "waste". 

I invite you to join with us in creating a major paradigm shift, in developing the infrastructure to capture the potential in our food waste, as a major step toward co-creating abundance and vibrant health for all, the infrastructure to responsibly compost the food waste; to un-leash the potential in the food waste.

That Magic^bioSoil can then be used to restore health to the soil, in fact, with great soil stewardship, likely improve the soil health far beyond what it has ever been in the past. We Can improve that soil so it will yield abundant nutrient rich plant based food, full of the minerals, phyto-chemicals and enzymes that nourish our bodies, re-creating vibrant health, slashing health care cost in the process. Click here to learn more about re-creating vibrant health.

Can we actually make this a better world, to eliminate hunger, to improve the overall health of people, other creatures and our environment? The answer is: "YES, we can!". We simply have to make it our priority, our primary focus. We can also provide those benefits efficiently so we have the byproduct of well earned profit, without depleting anyone else.

What kind of world do we want to leave for our children and grandchildren?

Can we co-create a much better world? Can we co-create vibrant health, abundance and peace, eliminating killing and destruction, eliminate contaminating our only home? Yes, we can. We simply need to set that as our burning goal, our focus. There is nothing that says profit cannot be a byproduct of providing benefits to others.

What kind of example do we want to set for others?

Do we want others to serve us as slaves, or for minimal compensation, or might we all be better off as a team, might they take better care of us, if they know that we are also committed to their well being? If we treat them as much appreciated and respected partners, they’ll more likely to be far more creative and synergistic, far more productive, leading to providing more value to society and our environment, and earning more profit.

If we got a broken leg, would we want a team of highly skilled people committed to helping us heal, recover? Would we get better care if they were motivated by more than just the money that we can pay them? What if someone else is willing to pay them more? Would they neglect us to go serve the other person who can pay them more?

Are there enough resources for all of us? Can we all have vibrant health and abundance?

Mother Nature designed our world for abundance. When we look at the potential of seed saving, if we save only 5% of the harvest, for seeds for next year, starting with a single seed of corn this year, in the third season we will potentially have over 1,000 ears of corn.

We can "have our cake, and eat it too".

What if you were to invest in regional food composting facilities that would save waste generators and haulers over $5 million a year in lower disposal costs, while collectively we divert a thousand tons a day that would otherwise go to incinerators and/or landfills, and, instead, responsibly compost those resources, turning them into Magic^bioSoil?

Our investing in socially and environmentally responsible infrastructure like this will improve the quality of the soil which we depend upon for our food, for our health, and with great leadership and management of resources, we can earn a nice sustainable ROI, profit, by adding real value to the universe.

While many other composting facilities may be problematic and of questionable profitability, we’ve invested over a decade in hand-on R&D, in-house, asking practical questions, and getting the answers, continually refining our technology, resulting in massive competitive advantages. While our number crunching says that small scale is not financially attractive, large scale can be very profitable, when our technologies are used.

A Google search today, for "compost research silos" the eleven top search results all point to our work. We also have experience in moderate size composting, handling thousands of cubic yards of compost.

As an investor, I would not be interested in putting my money into Cedar Grove Composting, or New Milford Farms, owned by Garick Corporation, particularly after seeing the technological advantages that we’ve developed from our hands on research.

If you would like to further explore teaming up with us to co-create a much more sustainable world, contact me. We can have a lot of fun providing massive value to society and our environment, and earn a nice profit as a well deserved byproduct. You may also know others who would like to join our team, and want to share this with them.

It can also yield a nice sustainable ROI as a byproduct of providing the benefits to society and our environment.

Underwriting a solution to two of the world’s serious challenges might be worth exploring, a way to create a very significant legacy.  Composting Food waste, on a professional and large scale, can turn trash into cash, when utilizing our techonogies.

The disposal of waste has become a major problem. The food waste portion of the waste stream is about 85% moisture, so it is a net energy loss at incinerators, and at landfills, it turns into greenhouse gases.

All food came from the soil, and to have a sustainable system, the food waste, should be returned to the soil, being responsibly composted to maximize its ability to improve the soil health, the ability of the soil to yield healthy food. The truth is, that soil amended with quality compost will yield more quantity and quality so this significantly improves our environment.

The economics can be sweet, when utilizing technologies that we’ve developed over the past 17 years of hands-on experience and our own hands-on research. In fact, it is the combination of our technologies that make the critical difference between a marginal business and significant profit.  While small scale does not work, financially, large scale can be very profitable, with visionary leadership.

Part of my nature is to consistently and repeatedly ask: "How can we do this better?", and "How can we improve on this?" I’ve visited about 42 different compost facilities around the United States, from Maine to Arkansas, Texas to Oregon. While some are huge operations, I question whether any of them are very profitable. A small portion had forced aeration. Only three that were not composting bio-solids have forced aeration.

Quality Source separation is already happening in the few areas that have the infrastructure to compost food waste. Click her to see a short video on a restaurant doing source separation.

There is information about our evolution in composting accessible at http://www.magicsoil.com/evolution.

Our first proposed new regional composting is planned to serve the lower Hudson River Valley region.

Success of this project is an integral part of the project design, with every person on the team relying on a major part of their income coming from profit sharing. The only way the team members get that income is to do whatever is necessary to provide the value to society and environment efficiently, to earn the profit. The team profit sharing protects the investors.

Those interested in more information can contact us and then we can give you access to the Executive Summary, including keys to success. This is an opportunity to invest in vital regional infrastructure that will significantly benefit society and our environment, and as a result of providing those benefits, earn a nice ROI for the visionary investors.

While the first facility will provide massive benefits to society and our environment, as fast as the first facility is up and running, then we can replicate it many times, compounding the benefits.

The current global financial crisis, combined with the increase in health care cost, increase in the incidence of cancer, heart attacks, diabetes, autism, and other dis-eases is proof that past practices are NOT good enough if we want to survive and thrive.

We’ve got the opportunity to Co-Create abundance and vibrant health for all, to stop fighting, to stop destroying our planet Earth, before we completely self destruct.

A few months ago I counted the number of rows of kernels and number of kernels in 4 of the rows. IF we save 5% of the kernels, and plant them in healthy soil next Spring, and repeat that the following Spring, starting with one single ear of corn this year, in the third season, we can have 1,043 ears of corn, starting with just one ear of corn.   Even if the germination rate were only 50%, that would still be over 500 ears of corn in the third season.

This makes it obvious that Mother Nature designed for abundance, When we start seed saving, and become stewards of the soil, and stop the insanity of war, destroying, and killing, we can co-create abundance, vibrant health and peace.

While in the past some people have defined success in terms of monetary profit, without regard to the cost to society and our environment. BP cut corners on a deep water oil well in the Gulf of Mexico. The corner cutting backfired on them with the explosion on April 20^th, resulting in massive monetary cost, and, worse, massive damage to our environment. Some are even speculating that the civil lawsuits may bankrupt BP. Were the potential benefits of the cost cutting worth the risk? Were people getting too nearsighted? What lessons can we learn from the BP disaster?

I suggest that every company review their mission statement, and that the monetary profit ought to be a byproduct of providing significant and sustainable real value to society and our environment, without posing a risk to our environment, including air and water quality, without creating health risks.

This morning I measured the height of the tallest of the corn in my organic garden. It was 9.0' tall, and on the evening of the 4^th of July it was 6.0' tall. In 8½ days, under drought conditions, without irrigation, that corn has grown 3.0'. Personally experiencing the growth of that corn is the kind of lesson that cannot be gotten from a conventional classroom, book or video.

What’s the "magic"? In two words: "Soil Stewardship". Take care of the soil first! About 1923 Dr. William Albrecht said that all animal health (which includes humans) depends on soil health.

Though human being have been tilling the soil for some 10,000 years, we’re learning that "No Till" organic agriculture, incorporating Permaculture is the path to optimizing crop and nutritional yield on a sustainable basis.

I look forward to the corn maturing, to picking an ear of corn, husking it, and pulling off the corn silk, and eating it, without taking ten steps from where I picked it, eating it within five minutes of picking it. I first discovered that joy last Fall, that corn fresh organic corn is far better, delicious, raw. That also means that the enzymes that our immune system need, have not been killed by the heat of cooking.

Because I added about 18" of leaves to my garden last Fall, and have deep mulching, I have thousands of earthworms, and virtually no weeds. I cannot see the soil, unless I move the leaf mulch aside.

My own hands-on experience, using organic growing practices, NO agricultural fertilizers, pesticides or herbicides, is sufficient proof for me that organic is the best option, the most sustainable way to grow healthy food, with nutrition that supports a healthy immune system, that can prevent dis-ease from taking over. It’s really economical health insurance.

The next step is to attract others to share in the joy, the experience, the rewards of soil stewardship, and growing our own organic food.

We as a species have created "waste". There is no waste in nature. Globally waste has become a massive problem. We can compost all food waste, and turn it into Magic^bioSoil and we can do it in ways that are neighbor and environmentally friendly, as well as profitable. This is a great opportunity for investors with vision. Learn more by visiting http://www.magicsoil.com  There is a 3 minute video available from the home page.

Let’s co-create alignment with Mother Nature, natural systems, and one another so we can enjoy vibrant health, abundance and peace. I wear a 6 band puzzle ring as a reminder of the importance of alignment.

Let’s co-create peace, vibrant health, abundance and a sustainable environment for all of us. In fact, with vision we can significantly improve our environment and health, and enjoy the process, without imposing any adverse effects. If you would like to be part of the solution, consider this an invitation to contact me. There is contact information on the above referenced website. Let’s have a lot of fun co-creating a much better world for all of us.

Collectively, society, the human species needs visionary investors to invest in regional food composting facilities, combined with our technologies for efficient, neighbor and environmentally friendly composting.

This is regional infrastructure vital to creating a sustainable future for humanity. The benefits go far beyond reducing "waste". The finished compost can restore health to the soil, so the soil can yield more food with a far higher nutrient density. Chemical / industrialized agriculture as too commonly practiced, is counter productive, yielding nutrient deficient mass that cannot possibly support a healthy immune system in those fed on that "phude" (adulterated food).

Mother Nature provided for abundance. Ponder the number of kernels on an ear of corn, each a seed with the potential of creating another ear of corn. IF only 5% of those seeds are saved, and yield an ear of corn each, and if there are 300 kernels, average, per ear, that is 1500% increase in a single growing cycle, over two growing cycles, 225X, and over 3 growing cycles, 3,375X. Yes, Nature provides for abundance. We, YOU and I, have to become stewards of the soil, and responsible managers of our resources.

We look forward to expanding our plant growth research, and from what we have already done, we KNOW that our compost yields awesome results, that there is NO need for the use of chemical fertilizers or pesticides. We KNOW that organic can yield far more nutrition, better health, a far more sustainable system.

We recognize that there have been many composting operations that have not been good neighbors, that have released foul odors, and some that have endangered ground water quality. We recognize that many composting facilities have been only marginally profitable, or not even that.

We believe that food composting should be done on a concrete composting pad, under roof, with aeration veins built into the composting pad, with the aeration system designed to harness the proven ability of our Dynamic Bio-Filters to eliminate all foul odors. Our number crunching consistently says that to be financially sustainable, economy of scale means it’s got to be regional, over 600tpd. (Tons per day coming in) and the tipping fee has to be over $55 per ton coming in.

We've had corn grow to over 12' tall in some of our compost amended soil, so we know it is possible.

While composting is a ‘natural process’, commercial composting, and particularly food composting, requires uncommon knowledge on much more than just how to eliminate foul odors, and front end marketing. We started composting in 1993, and I can tell you that we’ve learned a lot since then, that it is not nearly as simple as we thought it was going to be.

While in many industries managers recognize the importance of checking up on their production workers, in composting, since our primary production workers are microbes, checking up on them is significantly more challenging, requiring a powerful microscope and working understanding of the associated laboratory procedures. Without being able check up on the microbial master composters is ‘working blind’, and inhibiting the ability to become more efficient. We’ve invested in the ability to check up on our workers, to enable us to better empower those naturally occurring microbial master composters, and have found over 5.47 billion in a single teaspoonful of early stage compost.

We’re looking for a few special people who are skilled at growing startups, that would like to be part of a team that will provide massive value to society and our environment, enjoy the process, and share in the well earned profit that will be the byproduct of our vision, our providing massive material benefits to society and our environment.

If you’re that kind of person, or can help lead us to that sort of person, please contact us. More information can be found at http://www.magicsoil.com and http://www.magicsoil.com/success.

Mother Nature is awesome, and deserves far more respect than we, as a species, have been giving her. This morning I planted some radish seeds in Magic Soil (composted food ‘waste’) in containers on my back deck. I added some rock dust before planting, dust from rock drilling, to increase the mineral content in the soil. No other investment will yield, long term, the return that we will get from investing in re-creating vibrant health in the soil, and rebuilding local organic agriculture.

Our health ultimately depends on the health of the soil that our food is grown in. Industrialized agriculture has fallen prey to nearsighted and counter-productive, unsustainable thinking and practices. Chemical fertilizers and pesticides kill the natural soil food web that Mother Nature provided to cycle nutrients and keep the plants vibrantly healthy.

Many GMO’s (Genentically Modified Organisms) are designed to enable the plants to withstand applications of the highly toxic herbicide from Monsanto, Roundup, (Glyphosate). While Glyphosate kills competing weeds, it also kills many of the micro-organisms that Mother Nature provided and intended to cycle nutrients, so the plants can naturally enjoy vibrant health and be dis-ease resistant. Does it make sense that some of that carcinogenic Roundup ends up in the plants and crops, contributing to the cost and suffering associated with cancer? The chemicals also are very effective in killing the earthworms, the greatest soil managers imaginable. To better understand GMO's and Monsanto, click here to watch the video: World According to Monsanto. 

To get a better idea of how much food we can grow on a small amout of land, click here, to watch a short video on the Urban Homesteaters in Pasadena, California.

Reportedly 33% of the petroleum used in the United States is used in agriculture, much of that for chemical fertilizers and pesticides, which are counter-productive.  Visionary Organic Farming yields more food at a lower cost and is long term sustainable.  We could cut our oil consumption by 33% by going organic, and we'd have healthier soil, food and people.  While history shows that we cannot rely on the government to protect us, YOU and I can vote with our food dollars. We can boycott Industrialized Ag products, and we can buy and eat organic.  That will take the profit out of Ag chemicals as we undermine market demand. 

I suggest that on this Mother’s Day we commit to being a lot more respectful of Mother Nature, and the soil from which our food comes from. I suggest we commit to re-creating vibrant health in the soil. I suggest that we boycott any and all products that contain any GMO ingredients which includes most processed phudes (adulterated food). I suggest we support Organic Agriculture by buying Organic.

In alignment with Motherhood, I suggest that everyone boycott any and all factory farm byproducts, all animal flesh and dairy. Would any sane mother want her offspring, or self to be so abused and then slaughtered so that human beings can eat them? Compassion is a motherly quality, and eating animal products promotes cruelty to living creatures. The scientific evidence is clear: the human physiology, jaw and digestive track are designed for eating a plant based diet, not animal products. It is a scientifically proven fact that eating animal products promotes heart dis-ease and cancer.

On this Mother’s Day, 2010, I urge you to align with Mother Nature, have a lot more reverence for Mother Nature, and start to reflect on how our health is intricately linked to the health of the soil and our food choices.

What can each of us do to demonstrate our sanity and respect for Mother Nature?

• We can start to realize that ‘waste’ is a human invention and unsustainable;
• We can start to see food waste as something we must source separate and divert to responsible composting, so those food residuals can then re-create vibrant health in the soil, so that the soil can again yield healthy food, supporting our health.
• We can start appreciating all other living creatures as a mother does, caring, respect, and cease supporting abuse of other living creatures.
  •   This includes ceasing to support war; questioning the propaganda from government and those who profit from war;
  • We can cease to support factory farming by boycotting their products, by our buying organic.
  • We can enjoy nurturing and caring for all other living beings, regardless of our gender, we can be nurturing and caring.
  • Consider the possiblity that When those who have a  love of power, discover the power of love, the world will know peace. 
• Whether we live where we can have an expansive garden or in an apartment, we can get some really healthy soil and start to grow some of our own food. If in an apartment, you might start with a few containers and some organic radish seeds. Radishes are 20 - 30 days from sowing the seeds to harvest, under good soil and growing conditions.
• We can vote with our food dollars, and boycott any and all processed phudes, and GMO’s any and all animal products, which includes dairy, fish and fowl. If that seems like a giant step, start by watching the trailer to Food Matters, by clicking on this link.
• Mother ourselves, that is, nurture, care for ourselves by re-aligning with Mother Nature, natural systems.
• We can commit to Co-Creating abundance and grow beyond 'competing'.

Responsible regional food composting is a significant step toward re-creating vibrant health. Our vision is to provide comprehensive educational and inspirational programs, including growing nutrient dense organic produce that will help individuals like you re-create vibrant health in your body, to rebuild fully functional immune and defense systems naturally, with no adverse side affects. For people who align with these visions, contact us via the home page at www.magicsoil.com.

Let's dance together to co-create vibrant health of all people, creatures and abunance for all.  Mother Nature intended abundance.  Consider the number of "seeds" on ONE single ear of corn.  If only 1 or 2% were saved and germinated, and we used that corn to feed people instead of making animal manure, we could easily feed the world, assuming we also become stewards of the soil.

The key is soil stewardship, growing organic, in alignment with Mother Nature, and moving toward no-till, and Permaculture. To learn more about Permaculture, click here to watch a great video on Permaculture.

We cannot build the soil fertility and productivity as well as earthworms. We can work in harmony with the earthworms, spreading a layer of leaves 12" thick, on the soil, and allow the earthworms to come, multiply, feed on the leaves, burrow down 24" and maybe even 60"or more, defecating in their burrows, aerating the soil while also leaving abundant plant nutrients, and they can do this without expensive man made fossil fuel guzzling mechanical tractors.

We can eat food, and it takes trillions of naturally occurring microscopic bacteria in our digestive track to digest, to take ‘energy’ and nutrients from that food, and make it available to us. We need these bacteria as partners, to sustain us, our health.

We need oxygen for life. We breath in air, containing oxygen, and we exhale CO₂. Green plants must take in CO₂ from the air, to get the carbon they need to produce plant material, and through the process of photo-synthesis, the plants take the carbon, and give off oxygen, which we need to sustain our lives. There are so many essential synergistic relationships in nature. We may be mighty, but only as long as we co-exist in graceful harmony with the many other parts of the natural world.

While we may think of ourselves as the supreme intelligence, I have the illusion that we’re part of a much more complex synergistic team, and that as we have strayed and disrupted natural relationships, we’ve created diseases and endangered our own future.

Over the past year I have observed with awe the wonderful role that the earthworms have played in my garden, and maybe I’m only aware of a very small part of a much bigger picture. I have grown to have a reverence for those earthworms.

Last September (2009), when I pulled up corn stalks, I measured root that had gone down 21½" and have no idea how much root broke off, how deep the roots went. I credit the earthworms for tilling the soil, for distributing their castings down deep, so the roots went down, and had a much broader area from which to draw water and nutrients.

While we may build roads, skyscrapers, computers, airplanes, we cannot build soil quality as well as the earthworms. We’ve got to grow to respect the other critters and vital parts of nature, and learn to live in harmony with them, because without the earthworms, the soil will not be able to yield really healthy food, which we NEED to sustain our own health.

Creating greater success in commercial food composting may call for our broadening our vision, our perspective.

I am suggesting that our well being as a species is dependant upon our co-creating with all species, working together in harmony. That starts with our realizing that the other species are also part of our team, and "TEAM" means Together Everybody Achieves More; with those other species, including the microbes. Composting is also about creating a sustainable food supply, essential to our health.  

IF we want vibrant health, we need to eat healthy food, and healthy food can only come from healthy soil, soil with abundant organic matter and a thriving soil food web, made up of trillions of benefical naturally occuring microbes.

I have the illusion that success in commercial food composting depends on our working together, including working together with the microbial master composters, as well as the ‘human’ members of our team. We’re set up to do direct estimates of the population of active and total bacteria and fungi. In the case of active bacteria, we go through "serial dilutions", then stain with Fluorsescein Diacetate, and actually count under Epi-fluorescent microscopy. While oxygen consumption is a good indicator of microbial activity, the assaying takes it a step further.

Have some people lost perspective, or never even considered the possibility that we are not the dominant force on the planet, that we are part of a complex matrix, and that we’ve been naive in our neglecting the important role that other life forms play in the complex matrix? The mighty earthworm is a vital partner in maintaining healthy soil.

Human beings may have more ability to disrupt the natural balances, matrix; to create wars and nuclear weapons, cause radio-active contamination on a massive scale, because we’ve failed to appreciate natural systems, failed to have the wisdom to co-create for our common good, rather than to try to dominate others. We’ve created waste and pollution in many forms, endangering our future. We can change that.

Industrialized agriculture has been a pathetic failure, killing the soil food web with their chemical fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides, creating genetic chaos with GMO’s, which may be creating irreversible damage, endangering our future. Today’s high cancer rates are directly related to human beings fouling our environment, including killing the soil food web so that today the "food" from industrialized agriculture is grossly lacking in nutritional value, unable to sustain healthy people, while those same chemicals are poisoning us. Industrialized agriculture is not sustainable. Our survival and thriving depend on returning to Organic, and becoming stewards of the soil, and the rest of our environment.

Is that why so many people are shifting to an organic plant based diet? Is there an association to The Gerson Therapy, which has been effectively CURING cancer and most other diseases for over 75 years, based on an organic plant based diet?

I have read that there is far more bio-mass on planet earth in bacteria than there is in people. Most of those bacteria are vital to sustainability. Without the trillions of bacteria in our digestive track, digesting our breakfast, lunch and dinner, we could not survive for more than a few days.

In composting, our operating team includes people, and just as important, our operating team includes the naturally occurring micro-organisms that do the actual composting. While those micro-organisms are not on conventional payroll, they work 24/7, Sundays and holidays, and we are totally dependant upon them to compost the feedstock. Maybe our recognizing the vital role of the microbes is a key to our success.

While we cannot see the microbes, oxygen or CO₂, we focus on optimizing the working conditions for the microbes. Optimizing a composting business requires a holistic approach. I am guessing that whenever you see or hear of a composting business that has problems, they are failing to give adequate attention to a vital part of the whole.

We started developing our compost research silo lab in the Fall of 1999, and it has evolved since then, as a very practical tool enabling us to get first hand, hands-on answers to practical questions. On April 2^nd, 2010, we put into service our first "Super Tall Compost Research Silo" which can hold compost up to 97½" deep. It may not be fancy, but it does give us a practical tool and invaluable data. The photo to the right shows our first "Super Tall Compost Research Silo" which has already started enabling us to get invaluable first hand data; knowledge about how much vacuum is required to pull air through the compost at various rates.  -0.085"wc has been moving the air through the compost at 2.6 times the volume of the compost, per hour, with the moisture content of the compost being 62%.  -6.0"wc moved the air at a rate of 80X, with compost 96" deep.  This is not theory.  This is the data we've gotten from hands on research, the kind of data that we feel is vital to responsibly manage the composting process.

IF you’re the kind of person who would like to be part of a synergistic team dedicated to making this a much better world, creating abundance for all, massively improving our environment, and the quantity of high quality food for all, let’s talk. Please contact us.
