Reduces The Need For Harsh Chemicals

Soil³ compost is OMRI Listed for certified organic gardening. As the trusted choice for compost products, Soil³ grows stronger, healthier plants, minimizing the need for chemicals.

Season-Long Growing Without Fertilizer

Soil³ provides enough nutrients for season-long growing. No need to apply additional fertilizer. We have tested Soil³ in raised beds for up to four years without additional fertilizer.

WATER REGULATION

When incorporated into soil, compost helps regulate water. It helps retain water in sandy soils that drain quickly; while improving drainage in compacted clay soil.

Approved for Organic Gardening

Soil³ is approved by the Organic Materials Review Institute (OMRI) as a product for certified organic gardening. Many composts claim the word “organic,” but in reality are far from it. Check with OMRI (www.omri.org) to verify the authenticity of claims that any product is safe for organic gardening. We are OMRI Listed!

Natural and safe way to build good soil structure
Helps reduce compaction
Improves aeration
Neutralizes pH – that means the pH of an acidic soil will be raised into a better pH range; likewise an alkaline pH will be lowered into a better pH range for plant health
Improves water retention in sandy soils; likewise improves drainage in compacted soils
Increases nutrient retention
Suppresses diseases in lawns and gardens by introducing microorganisms into the soil
No sludge (a.k.a. biosolids, the new code word for human waste)
No peanut hulls (peanut hulls carry a bacterial disease)
No vermiculite, perlite, or bark fillers
No peat filler (peat offers no benefits to plants, plus mining it destroys the fragile, ancient peat ecosystems)
No large particles or mulch-like texture – Soil³ is thoroughly composted and finished by screening for a fine-grained texture
No “killer compost” because the inputs were never treated with the class of persistent herbicides called pyridine carboxylic acids that contain picloram, clopyralid, aminopyralid, or aminocyclopyrachlor (Imprelis) – often found in horse manure

How Soil³ is made

Our compost is not created using random carbon and nitrogen sources that may be contaminated. We have control over the inputs – growing the sod and wheat ourselves and contracting with a dairy that feeds their livestock silage. It’s important to know where compost inputs come from and we tell you exactly about ours.

The dairy cow barn pads and our own windrow pads are made of sand. When the cow manure is scooped up sand is entering the compost. Likewise, when our windrows of cooking compost are wetted, turned, and finally scooped into the BigYellowBags some sand is entering the compost at those times, too.

We use Soil³ on our own clay-based fields and in our personal gardens and welcome this sand as an ingredient that improves drainage and soil structure.
