Q: I have seen the term "manure tea." Can you tell me what it is, where to get it, and how to use it?
A: You make it yourself. Here's the recipe. Fill a large trash can two-thirds full of water. Add 2 large buckets of chicken manure and let steep for several hours. Stir with a hoe until it is murky. Ladle the "tea" around vegetables or flowers. Old-timers claim that this drink will prevent tomato blight, and it's a great multi-purpose fertilizer.

Would you like one lump or two?
That's exactly what was said to the woodchuck and what was carried out!
