Natural Farming with Master Cho

A New Wave : In Harmony with Nature

Big Island agricultural workshop

For more information please visit http://localgarden.us/ or call 344-3464.

Download .pdf registration form and more information.

You will learn a completely sustainable system of farming that requires no off-island inputs and provides abundant and nutritious food.

Learn how to:

collect and cultivate Indigenous Micro-Organisms

make Oriental Herbal Nutrient (OHN), Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB), Fermented Fruit Juice (FFJ), Fermented Plant Juice (FPJ), Fish Amino Acid (FAA), Water-Soluble Calcium (WCA), and Water-Soluble Calcium Phosphate

These ingredients enhance plant growth, and you will learn how to apply these inputs in synchronization with the nutritive life cycle of plants.

In the Livestock workshop you will learn how to raise chickens, pigs and cows sustainably without foul odors. The Natural Farming system uses IMO’s and produces animal feeds on site.

Mr. Cho has devoted his life to developing, perfecting, and sharing these techniques with farmers in 32 different countries including Korea.

There is no longer any need to buy chemical fertilizers for the optimum health of your plants. Everything your plants need to thrive exists naturally in our environment and is, literally, at our feet. Natural Farming focuses on living soil and Indigenous Micro-Organisms (IMO’s). IMO’s are the missing link in “organic” farming. They convert organic material into the inorganic minerals and nutrients the plants can utilize.
