I share updates on upcoming online and in-person events, The Bokashi Bootcamp™, and occasional behind-the-scenes glimpses of how I compost in my own home.

If you’ve been curious about making this work in your space, this is the best place to start.

Composting that works for real spaces

You don’t need a big backyard or piles of leaves to compost successfully.

If any of these sound like you, you’re in the right place.

No Yard Waste. You have food scraps but not piles of leaves or grass clippings to make traditional composting work.
Pest Concerns. You’re worried about attracting rats, raccoons, or smells, especially with close neighbors or wildlife nearby.
Simple, Not Complicated. You don’t want to manage ratios, moisture, or turning large piles.
Discreet. You don’t have room for a large compost pile or you live in a neighborhood where a visible compost pile isn't realistic. You need something discreet that fits your space.

READY TO GET STARTED?

Let's turn your food scraps into nutrient rich compost the easy way!

CLIENT testimonials

“This system works perfect for a small household with limited resources and space.”

"I was unable to have a compost pile at my new home due to husband worrying about rats, and me being worried about my new HOA neighbors freaking out, so I love how I can compost “on the sly” with Bokashi (ie, guerilla composting)"

“You are a great teacher. Very relatable and very patient with us newbies.”

WELCOME, FRIEND!

Hi! I'm Jen

Bokashi Compost Coach

I help gardeners turn your food scraps into nutrient-rich compost using a simple, discreet system that works without yard waste, messy piles, or pests, even in small spaces or wildlife-heavy areas.

My approach comes from years of real, hands-on experience composting in a townhouse with close neighbors, associations, limited space, and plenty of pest pressure from an adjacent greenspace.

I’ve also spent years doing community outreach and education as a volunteer, where I heard the real concerns people have about composting, from pests and space limitations to not having enough yard waste. I also saw how some people struggled to take composting advice and apply it to their own real-life setup.

Before this, I spent 20 years as a technical writer and product support consultant. That experience shaped how I teach today. I help you understand not just what to do, but the why behind it and how to make it work in your own home and situation.

“This works for me where other compost programs have not, and I like having the benefit of composting my own food scraps.”

"I was disappointed to find out here that an outdoor pile could attract rats, plus my HOA probably wouldn’t allow it. I was resigned to schlepping my food scraps to the community recycling bin, and having to buy commercially made fertilizer. I luckily found out about a Bokashi composting class taught by Jen. I now am turning my food scraps into healthy compost INSIDE my home with no smell or bugs. So happy to have learned about this process that is easy to do, saves money, and contributes to the health of our planet.”

“The compost tea has really benefited my plants.”
