"Compost - is the product manufactured through the controlled aerobic, biological decomposition of biodegradable materials. The product has undergone mesophilic and thermophilic temperatures, which significantly reduces the viability of pathogens and weed seeds, and stabilizes the carbon such that is beneficial to plant growth. Compost is typically used as a soil amendment, but may also contribute plan nutrients"
- USCC Compost Definition - March 2018Country Oaks Landscape Supply take's composting pretty seriously. In fact we are one of only 3 companies in Michigan who have been awarded the US Composting Council Seal of Testing Assurance and we are very proud of this!
All of our compost is STA (United States Compost Council) Certified. Our compost is tested quarterly to ensure it meets the exact specifications required by the United State Compost Council.
The Organic material in compost provides excellent water absorption and promotes root growth through microbial activity and our custom soil blends are ideal for seeding and planting.
Adding compost to soil takes carbon out of the atmosphere and puts it back into the earth where it can be beneficial to our environment.
