We couldn't just watch the peat bogs die.
We read an article. Then we jumped in.
A few years back, we stumbled across an article about the environmental damage caused by excavating peat bogs for soil and hydroponic growing, releasing tons of stored carbon into the atmosphere each year & crushing wildlife habitats that . How could the digging be stopped? We had no clue. But we knew there had to be a better way.
The perfect answer was sitting right in front of us: coconut coir peat. Produced entirely by recycling discarded coconut husks, it’s an ideal, universally accepted replacement for peat moss. We couldn't ask for more, so we jumped in with both feet.
It's not just for the planet.
While coco coir is environmentally sustainable, that isn't the only reason we prefer it over peat. Coco coir as a gardening substitute has exceptional water retention and nutrient retention, making it suitable for hydroponic farms or as a general soil addition. We offer coconut coir for gardening, coconut chips for potting mixes, coconut fibers for erosion control, and custom-tailored mixes of all three to suit your needs. To us, coconut coir is the gift that keeps on giving.
We know our pros. And our cons.
As versatile as coconut coir is, it isn't perfect for every situation. We're honest about that, and won't try to sell you a product that doesn't meet your needs. If we believe that we don't offer a quality product for your specific situation, we'll just say it. Help us help you.
One step in a long road.
The issue of climate change is real, and the fight to prevent global warming has to continue. To reduce the environmental effect of peat excavation, we ask you to partner with us in order to preserve the planet for the next generation. For peat's sake, and for ours.
