Organic Soil Sale
9am-1pm Saturday February 21, 2015 | The Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education |
This event occurs in the past Buy soil for your garden directly from the Schuylkill Center! Organic Mechanics soils are 100% organic, use locally sourced ingredients, and are one of the few peat-free garden soils available. Peat bogs are unique ecosystems, similar to wetlands, and one of the biggest stores of carbon and greenhouse emissions on the planet. Although peat is a common ingredient in soil mixes, current use is unsustainable because the bogs are harvested rapidly, but take hundreds of years to replace, growing just millimeters per year. Instead of peat, Organic Mechanics uses compost and coconut coir, both recycled materials with the added benefits of greater moisture retention and increased nutrient content. Plus, the soils are produced in Chester County, PA – just outside of Philadelphia. We’ll have limited quantities of soil at the sale – so make sure to pre-order your soil now so we have the quantity you need, ready for pick-up. You may mail, email, call, or fax your order by Friday, January, 30 by 5pm. schuylkillcenter.org/blog/event/organic-soil-sale | (215) 482-7300 8480 Hagys Mill Rd Philadelphia, PA 19128 Website  Google Places |
