I’ve partnered with Crooked Farmz to supply me proprietary blends of compost tea for my clientele—just trying to keep within the leading edge of the curve. Our industry needs more forward thinking entrepreneurs and Sean is that guy. Local, sustainable and earth friendly … this just made sense.

Crooked Farmz offers custom preparations of freshly-brewed 5-gallon drums of compost teas and extracts, available on-demand for professionals in agriculture, horticulture, arboriculture, turfcare, and nursery practice — as well as intermediate to advanced home gardeners and growers.
We were one of the growers profiled in Jamie Day Fleck’s 2021 documentary on urban agriculture in Toronto, In My Backyard. We have also appeared in interviews with CBC Toronto and CP24, on Steven and Emma Biggs’ Food Garden Life podcast, and in long-form interview on Li Koo’s Tea With Li. We’ve also been given shout-outs on Mark and Ben Cullen’s Green File podcast, and a profile on the Humans Who Grow Food web community.
Usage
Compost teas are designed to organically improve soil health and resilience by reintroducing microbial populations back into the soil (bacteria, fungi, protozoa, etc.), along with other amendments as per your order. We work with you to create a recipe that best serves your needs.
The three main variables determining coverage beyond the time of season are: delivery method/purpose, hardiness/type of plants, and fungal vs. bacterial brew. A 5-gallon quantity, when diluted appropriately, is suitable for soil drenching a typical backyard space and/or using as a foliar spray across several properties.
Dilute between 10:1 to 20:1 prior to usage.
To order
To order, either select one of our house blend compost teas and extracts, or choose from a menu of inoculants, sugars, and amendments to develop a personalized tea recipe that best serves your clients’ needs in a freshly-brewed and timely manner.
5-gallon quantities retail for $135+HST (a 30% savings from consumer retail price). Delivery is extra within GTA, and free pick-up is always available at our Crooked Farmz East York location.
