Your landscaping will only be as good as the soil it is planted in. Soils are living ecosystems that provide the needed air and water flow to support a healthy and sustainable landscape.
Soil is the foundation of a sustainable garden. It provides a variety of benefits, often without our knowing:
Absorbs rainfall and mitigates flooding
Removes pollutants and cleanses water
Stores water for plants, wildlife and people
Provides habitat for organisms such as microscopic bacteria and earthworms that transform wastes into nutrients for plants.
Stores atmospheric carbon
Sustains plants, which provides food, fiber for clothing, timber, medicines and other goods
