Innovative Organic Fertilisers & Nutritional Products for Horticulture, Viticulture & Agriculture.
About us
We have been supporting New Zealand commercial growers for two decades. We do this by distributing organic balanced fertilisers, hydroponic supplies and plant nutritional products to farmers, growers and home gardeners. These can replace the synthetic chemicals widely used, and produce impressive results, including faster plant growth, increased crop yields, healthier soils and plants more resistant to disease. We don’t just THINK these mineral fertilisers and micro-organisms work, we KNOW they do! We have extensive independent research and field trials, which highlight the efficacy of these products. We believe growers should be informed of and given the choice of utilising new advanced organic fertilisers, such as these organic products that produce the same or often BETTER results than their synthetic counterparts. And as they are more effective, less product needs to be applied, fewer tractor runs and that equals more cost savings to growers.

Here's a handy tip to prepare your garden for the Spring season ahead: Tidy up and mulch your garden beds! 🌿 Clear Debris: Remove fallen leaves, dead plants, and particularly rotting fruit or veggies from your garden beds. This helps prevent pests and disease that can overwinter in plant debris. 🌿 Add Mulch: Apply a layer of organic mulch around your plants and over bare soil. Mulch retains moisture, regulates soil temperature, and suppresses weed growth. Plus, it enriches the soil as it decomposes, giving your plants a healthy start for spring. 🌼 🌿 Add Mycorrhizal Fungi when planting: Prepare your plants for a strong Spring start by incorporating Mycorrhizal fungi when raising seed, seedlings or planting out. These beneficial fungi establish a symbiotic relationship with plant roots, enhancing nutrient and water absorption, which is crucial as plants gear up for their Spring growth spurt. These simple steps will set the stage for a flourishing Spring garden. Happy gardening! 🌱 #GrowBetter #NewZealndGrowers #RootsShootsFruits #OrganicFarming

🌍 Today is World Orangutan Day—a time to take action to protect rainforests and the orangutans that call them home. These incredible creatures are on the brink of extinction due to habitat destruction for palm oil plantations. Shockingly, New Zealand is the largest importer of palm kernel in the world and plays a crucial role in this crisis. By reducing our reliance on palm kernel and supporting sustainable farming, we can help save orangutans. 🙌 Join us on this World Orangutan Day, standing up for rainforests and the wildlife that depends on them. 🌱 #WorldOrangutanDay #ProtectRainforests #SaveOrangutans #RootsShootsFruits #GrowBetter
