HEALTHY SOILS, HEALTHY ENVIRONMENTS

We strive for “mirrored diversity”. By that we mean that we are just as concerned with what is going on below the ground as above. A healthy plant community requires diversity, however it is well known that some plant species just get along better with others. 

We test a multitude of combinations every year so that we can create the best mixtures. An ideal mix will provide a dense canopy above ground and feature diverse rooting structures below to provide maximum benefits for more of the soil profile.

LEAVING A LEGACY

Our goal is to help you improve your soil, making it better for future generations.
