Compost improves water holding capacity of soil, improves soil structure, in increases moisture infiltration reducing erosion and runoff, buffers soil pH and improve nutrient-holding capacity, supplies beneficial microorganisms to the soil, suppresses certain soil-borne diseases, a food source for beneficial microbes already in the soil, provides macro- and micro-nutrients.

Contrary to what one might think growing in 100% compost or applying more compost than needed can have its drawbacks. This includes nutrient and salt overload as well as being just plain wasteful with your money and the final compost product.

When it comes to our compost, a little goes a long way. Composts vary depending on what you put into them and our unique recipe - using your food scraps - is not like other composts you can buy in the stores.

Our compost has a different proportion of nutrients than other composts made from just green waste or forest products. We have finely sifted it and removed most of the wood chips and hopefully all of the contaminants, such as plastic. Our compost's nutrients are readily available and chock full of microbial life. Just a sprinkle on top can boost soil and plant health.
