" I am a lifelong plant mom, grower, propagator, seed saver and self taught “soil biology nerd”. I am also the Director of Sales for Pure Life Soil.
My obsession with growing, healthy soil, the science behind all the magic that happens in the ground and above it, started at the young age of 11. Forty years later, that obsession has grown immensely and has turned into a career that I love!
I have been working and experimenting with the wonderful world of worms and other bio-stimulants for over 20 years.
The most interesting part of my job, is working with our little wiggly friends in the ground, worms!!! Since they are the creators of healthy soil and the best fertilizer known to mankind, their superpowers have been changing the health of farmlands, the gardens of backyard warriors, such as my own gardens and growing healthy food that will improve human health.
My parents grew up farming in Europe, during a time when there were no modern conveniences, chemicals or machinery. As a child, seeing how this permaculture paradise operated, it all makes sense now. It always made me wonder how they were able to produce and live off of their land, with no electricity or running water. They relied on mother nature and knew the science, of how to grow sustainably and regenerate their land masses.
We are a company that stands out in the horticulture industry, not only for our amazing soil biology and our millions of worms here at our facility, but for our ethos and the methods we use to produce sustainably and responsibly.
Pure Life Soil is a family owned company and has been operating for 54 years. We stand firm behind our principles of producing a truly organic soil that will trap carbon, feed plants a nutrient dense diet, produce healthy food and repair the earth.
Using regenerative and renewable practices is key to our company and to myself personally. "
