Using compost is a smart and environmentally responsible way to Build Healthy Soil. It supplies nutrient rich organic matter for feeding soil biology that plants need to thrive. Compost improves soil structure to support healthy root growth and increases water holding capacity and penetration. In addition, utilizing compost helps to stabilize soil pH, improving its ability to store and cycle nutrients for future vegetation.
