ALL OF OUR SOILS ARE MADE WITH
STA CERTIFIED COMPOST
STA CERTIFIED COMPOST
Our compost is 100% natural, regularly tested, and certified by the US Composting Council. It’s used to improve soil in landscapes, home gardens, lawns, and farms. It provides rich organic humus for soil restoration and amendment, improves soil structure and aeration in heavy or compacted soils and water holding capacity in sandy soils. It contains beneficial soil bacteria and fungi for natural plant health and stabilizes pH while increasing nutrient availability.
SPURT DIRT: 50-50 Topsoil/compost planting soil.
It is a garden mix that has 50% compost and 50% mineral soils, created especially for establishing and sustaining superior growth in flower beds, vegetable gardens and new lawns. It is a natural blend of compost and topsoil to provide optimum growing conditions for plants.
ENVIROBLEND
Designed for rain gardens, Enviroblend was created to act as a natural filtration product for stormwater runoff from large impermeable surfaces such as roof tops and parking lots using EPA & EGLE management guidelines. It filters the contaminated water from these areas, traps the sediment from within the water yielding a cleaner water stream. This blend has 1/3 sand, 1/3 topsoil and 1/3 compost and is made to order.

2024 Wixom Food Waste Collection Pilot Program
Instead of sending organics to the landfill where they will be wasted, Wixom residents can now place food scraps with their yard waste to be collected weekly at curbside. These scraps, like your yard waste, will be composted and used in gardens and city projects, thus creating healthy, nutrient-rich soil and cleaner air.
