Customer Testimonial

A testimonial in passing yesterday, from Mr. and Mrs. Shows of Chesterfield

Mr. Shows: We put your tea on some of our tomatoes and not on others and the ones we used it on – BOOM – have doubled in size.
Mrs. Shows: Yeah! ... But I wonder if it was all that rain we have gotten. Maybe some got more than others.
Mr. Sho
ws: Well, the rain doesn’t help to explain the houseplants. They exploded after the tea too.
Mrs. Shows: Oh yeah, I guess you’re right.


Folks, we are hearing this over and over. It’s not too late in the season to use LivingSoils, on anything you are growing. In fact you just might get a late season surprise of renewed vigor in your plants.
Come see us at South of the James, or get more on our basics here.

Hibiscus Blooms!

Garrett, of Richmond: "I used LivingSoils on two of my three Hibiscus. Within three weeks, the two that got the compost tea were more than twice the size of the third one. More new growth, more blooms and even thicker stems. This is why we came back for more."
