What the world calls "organic" used to be what everybody just did, growing plants and food with no added chemicals, which is now something we need to get back to. Soil used to be richer, plants used to be healthier and food used to be more nutritious.

Overproduction and overuse of chemicals has depleted the soil. Nutrient depleted soil does not hold water well. This results in little vitamins and minerals taken in by the plants, which require more and more water to produce growth.  It’s a domino effect resulting in less nutritious food plants. Today, to get the same nutritional value from a conventional carrot grown in nutrient depleted soil versus a carrot grown in healthy organic soil, you would have to eat 25 carrots to 1.  In the past thirty years Americans have become more obese overall.

We have increased the use of vitamin-mineral supplements due to nutrient deficiencies by 300%. The connection between our depleted soil and our overall health is clear. The overuse of chemical fertilizers has compromised our waterways. It has even left some soils useless. Chemical residue in our food is creating more health issues for a lot of children and adults.   It makes you wonder just how safe is the food we eat. It seems the best way to ensure that is to buy organic or grow your own organic food, at least some of it. Grow it in raised beds with flowers. Grow it in containers or backyard gardens. It’s not so hard.  Our plant food tablets make it easy.  We can show you how.

Our humate based organic fertilizer puts 70+ vitamins, minerals and amino acids into the soil. Plants absorb these rich nutrients, requiring 40-50% less water to grow. The fossilized animal and plant life in the raw humate attracts microbes and other living organisms that bring balance to the soil and create a natural aeration.  All of this produces stronger roots, fuller foliage, more nutritious fruit, nuts, or vegetables. Our organic fertilizer will meet the needs of the soil, balance any deficiencies and restore the soil to the way it used to be, fertile and alive.
