A Little Bag of Soil Magic ✨
Like Boxed Cake Mix for Homemade Compost
Composting felt complicated—kitchen scraps piled up, but the essential ‘browns’ were hard to find in an urban environment.
Balancing and making compost felt messy, wet, and out of reach.
Just add The Velveteen Bean mix as needed, kitchen scraps and water to start the compost process & make a climate impact.
This handcrafted, dried blend transforms upcycled materials into a nutrient-rich powerhouse—kickstarting the science of composting by adding the right ratios, feeding microbes, enhancing compost, and restoring the earth.
The science of compost made simple, no farm required.
The bagged mix includes: • Bunny Manure, sourced from local bunny rescues. Also known as the cutest poop! – Nitrogen-rich, odor-free, dry, and ready to use.• Used Coffee Grounds, Dried (waste from local cafes) – Boosts microbial activity and is high in nitrogen. Helps sustain high temperatures in compost piles, breaking down organic material and reducing potential pathogens.• Second-use Straw - aids aeration and adds slow-release carbon, phosphorus, and potassium. (Grazon and GMO free) • Compressed Organic Sawdust Pellets – contributes carbon, improves aeration, and enhances moisture retention and structure. By closing the loop—diverting organic matter from landfills and returning it to the soil—it helps build thriving, living ecosystems from the ground up.
✨ Use it two ways ✨ enrich compost or mix directly into soil—because healthy soil means healthier plants, and a healthier planet.
Why Use The Velveteen Bean?
✔ Simplifies Composting – Whether used in a backyard bin, community pile, or small indoor container, this blend provides the perfect balance of nitrogen and carbon to keep compost active and thriving. Helps with odor and buggies too.
✔ Speeds Up the Process – Bunny manure and coffee grounds jumpstart microbial activity, helping organic matter break down faster for ready-to-use compost sooner.
✔ Enriches Soil, Naturally – Even without composting, it can be mixed directly into garden beds or pots/containers to improve soil texture, boost nutrients, and support plant health.
✔ Reduces Waste & Regenerates Soil – By diverting organic materials from landfills, The Velveteen Bean helps close the loop on waste while giving back to the earth.
Good for compost. Good for the garden. Good for the planet.
