Manure Tea?
Many organic gardeners will quickly tell you compost tea is the best all-around liquid fertilizer you can use on your plants. Compost tea is generally made by collecting finished compost and placing it in a bucket filled with water. The compost and water is allowed to brew for several days in the sun. The liquid is then strained and used to water vegetables, flowers, or lawns.
So, you are probably wondering then….. what is manure tea though?
What Is Manure Tea?
Manure tea is very similar to compost tea, in fact, it is compost tea but uses composted livestock manure.
The manure is collected and composted in the sun over the course of several months.
The livestock are raised in pastures that contain native grasses, where the cattle are allowed to graze just as nature intended.
Manure teas are used as a soil conditioner in vegetable gardens, flower gardens, lawns and compost piles. Watering plants with manure tea conditions the soil so plant roots can better absorb nutrients. It also provides valuable nutrients, minerals and beneficial microorganisms that supports growing strong and healthy plants.
Manure tea can also be added directly to compost piles to accelerate decomposition.
The whole process of brewing manure tea was once a pretty messy (and foul) task which consisted of collecting the manure, composting the manure, mixing it in containers, then straining the liquid to get the valuable tea. As you would imagine, a number of people are turned away by the idea of storing and handling manures in order to get the precious tea.
This is where Authentic Haven Brand simplified brewing and using manure teas. The composted manure is packaged in an all-natural cotton tea bag that makes brewing the manure tea a breeze! You never have to worry about storing or handling manure because it’s all contained in a convenient tea bag ready for use.
So, you ready to win this awesome prize?

I would love to win some Moo Poo Tea!
I love anything to keep my garden producing! I’ve done compost tea before, but since I do not (yet) have animals, manure tea has been out of reach. Would love this simple way to make manure tea and keep my garden green and productive into the fall!
I have read SO MUCH about Annie’s moo poo tea and my garden could certainly use a pick-me-up! i have tried composting but must be doing something wrong bc i’m not getting the results i expected. SO i can’t make compost tea. thanks for this fabulous contest.
What an awesome giveaway! Luv the new link too as I’ll definitely peruse their site.
I pretty much have a black thumb and also am sensitive to chemicals, so this natural approach would be wonderful for me and my pets.
Why I want to win Authentic Haven Brand products? For my urban organic garden of course!
gonna be talking about ways to make plants organically healthy this saturday — will mention the product regardless, now that i know about it!
My plants are addicted to Moo Poo Tea! It’ll soon be time to bring the houseplants indoors, and Moo Poo Tea will help keep ’em strong during the winter months.
Seriously? Who *wouldn’t* want to say they use Moo Poo on their plants? I’m giggling just thinking about it.
my Urban Farm is going to need some Moo Poo Tea! It’s the best!!!
I’ve beeen wanting to try this stuff and I was ready to order it here soon for our fall garden plans, but since you’re giving it away in such generous quantities, I’ll wait.
I’ve seen what Authentic Haven Brand Products can do especially Moo Poo tea! I can always use more as I support lots of school and community gardens in my local area.
