Every family has one. The person with a monstera in the corner, a pothos on the bookshelf and a windowsill full of cuttings in jars. They already own every pot. So what do you get them? Here is our idea: a fresh worm castings brew kit from our farm in Seymour, Missouri. It is different, it is fun to open, and it gives them a new brew day ritual for their houseplants.
What is in a brew kit
Each Starter kit has what a plant parent needs to make a fresh castings brew at home: a bag of fresh worm castings, unsulphured molasses packets, and an air pump with an air stone. They add a bucket and water. Brew day is four steps: water, molasses, castings bag, pump. Our simple brew guide shows the whole thing.
Which size fits which plant parent?
- Starter, 1 cup, $44. Makes about 1 to 3 gallons. Good for the person with a shelf or windowsill of pots, or someone just getting into houseplants.
- Starter, 5 cup, $89. Makes about 5 to 15 gallons. Good for the person whose whole house is a jungle.
Refills make great stocking stuffers
Already have a plant parent with a kit? Refills are $29 and $79. They fit in a stocking and keep brew day going into the new year. Want to keep it going all year? Fresh Drop autoship sends 2 cups of fresh worm castings every 2 weeks or monthly, and they can pause, skip or cancel anytime.
