Closing the Loop, Use the Poop! Tagro and Sound Gro For Sustainable Methods
Sustainability means closing the gaps between what you create, what you need and what you use. We advocate the use of bio-solids in the natural home garden. Certified organic growers may not use bio-solids in their agriculture. This may change as products change and standards are so high. We support the highest standards in certified organic growing. However, the home gardener and landscaper may use bio-solids with great success and eliminate the need for synthetic fertilizers. Close the loop, use the poop!. Using bio-solids on veggies and edibles comes down to personal preference but with higher quality bio-solids as natural soil amendments we definitely advocate their use on lawn and landscape.
