  • Manure into Magic: Enrichment, Cooperative Care & Compost Laws

    Manure into Magic: Enrichment, Cooperative Care & Compost Laws
    Dec 7 2025

    In this episode Tabitha from Esperanza Sanctuary explores how enrichment and cooperative care for farm animals, on-site composting of manure and food scraps, and California’s organic waste laws (like SB 1383) intersect to build healthier animals, richer soil, and more resilient communities.

    She explains practical enrichment and cooperative care techniques, how manure and food waste become fertility instead of trash, and how state policy is driving local climate action and food sovereignty.

    Tabitha also shares a local update: the first dog training graduates with the City of Desert Hot Springs and ongoing one-on-one behavior work that supports families and keeps pets in homes.
