What to Add to Your Soil

What to Add to Your Soil

It is important to top up your growing areas with organic matter such as compost at least once a year.  Think of organic matter as feeding the soil, not the plants. Nutrient-rich soil is the lifeblood of a thriving garden—improving soil structure, enriching soil, and nourishing the vital microbial life within it. 

Without a thriving soil life, plants growing in the soil would struggle. In nature, soil isn’t left bare for long – there’s a constant cascade of organic matter landing on it, which then rots back down into the soil to keep soil microbes, worms, and all manner of beneficial bugs healthy. These guys in turn unlock nutrients, making them available to searching plant roots, so you can see why our role in feeding compost to your garden soil is so important.
