Gumption — Vermicompost Production Manager

Gumption is a dignified neutered lilac buck with a serious, steady nature and an admirable commitment to excellence. Quietly focused and reliably industrious, he takes deep pride in the earthy, day-to-day work that keeps the Homestead thriving.

As our Vermicompost Production Manager, Gumption oversees the entire nutrient-creation process with calm authority. He inspects raw materials, monitors progress with a thoughtful stare, and evaluates each finished batch with the gravity of someone who understands just how important good soil truly is.

When production surpasses expectations—or when VermiBoost sales are especially strong—Gumption attempts celebratory binkies. These are earnest, slightly awkward, and enormously charming displays of joy that never fail to make the humans laugh.

Though he tends to be reserved, Gumption melts instantly under gentle cheek rubbies, purring with contentment and revealing the affectionate heart beneath his professional exterior.

Fun Fact:
Gumption believes that top-tier compost requires both hard work and heartfelt dedication—and measures success in the height and enthusiasm of his binkies.
