Bioreactor Compost Engine Update for 2022

A Spring 2022 update on the bioreactor/compost engine at Mezzacello. I am currently on my 2nd 1000L batch, this year.

Lots of new, fun stuff coming online for the aquatic ecosystem at Mezzacello. New pumps, filters, harvesting, and wetlands!

A tour of the beauty of the formal garden rooms at Mezzacello. Waves of color, texture, and varied heights to attract and support life.

Explore the “atmosphere” of a pond. This lesson covers the chemistry and environment and oxygen and pollutants of a pond.

Students will learn the mystery of magnetism. From the quantum to the electro-mechanical students will explore all types of magnets.

Students will explore water as both a critical solvent and as a source of live-giving moisture and hydration. Focus on Biochemical analysis.

The moment when you realize that the biofilter for the pond is actually also an algae wine cask for the flowers.

A big hole, bigger dreams, some resources, disasters, and a summer later, we have a pond. And there were ducks.
