ERTH Food is the all-natural, organic, composted fertilizer with super-natural results. It is a unique all-in-one product that provides soil-conditioning organic matter and nutrients in one application.

ERTH Food has the US Composting Council's Seal of Testing Assurance and exceeds the EPA 503 rule as an Exceptional Quality product. ERTH Food is recognized by the state of Georgia as a nutrient-grade compost and is consistent enough to be licensed in 18 states as an organic fertilizer with a guaranteed NPK analysis of 1.5-0.5-0.5.

ERTH Food, unlike other soil amendments and synthetic fertilizers, is rich in organic matter and nutrients and contains microorganisms--the basis for plant growth and animal life--on which we all depend for sustenance. ERTH Food contains more than just Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), and Potassium (K); ERTH Food contains the other micro and macro nutrients essential for plant growth, such as Magnesium, Calcium, Iron, Manganese, Copper, Boron, Sulfur, and Sodium.

ERTH Food compost is environmentally friendly--preserving, purifying, and restoring soil and water resources. Because organic matter enhances water and nutrient-holding capacity and improves soil structure, the use of ERTH Food can enhance productivity and environmental quality and can reduce the severity and costs of natural phenomena such as drought, flood, and disease.
