SWEET PEET^®

SWEET PEET^® is a 100% organic product made from composted ingredients harvested from local farming operations. Used as mulch, its rich dark color and natural texture are the perfect visual enhancement in any landscape setting. With a high moisture retention value, it is excellent for perennial, ornamental and vegetable gardens, and around the base of trees and shrubs.

As a superior soil conditioner, SWEET PEET^® is fortified with farm manure and reduces nitrogen-borrowing when tilled-in around root zones of plantings. It adds organic matter to the soil aiding in moisture retention. Unlike cedar, pine and bark by-products which are used with acid loving plants, SWEET PEET^® benefits all other plantings, and with regular use can eliminate the need for applying caustic limestone.

SWEET PEET^® has a sweet, earthy smell. It differs from many mulches and soil amendments in that it contains no human waste and no construction or demolition debris (which can include ground up nails, glass, plastic, creosote or wood preservatives). SWEET PEET^® contains only virgin wood products, farm manure and plant fibers, and derives its color from naturally occurring tannins which are baked-in during composting giving it the dark color and texture SWEET PEET^® is famous for. SWEET PEET^® is safe for children, pets, plants and all living things!

A natural product formulated for our changing environment, SWEET PEET^® is especially beneficial in the Eastern United States, where existing acid soils are further aggravated by sulphur emissions and acid rain. It is weed free and qualifies in any organic certification program.

Used as Mulch, SWEET PEET^® will...

• Beautify borders and edges
• Prevent drying and crusting of soil surface
• Suppress weeds
• Control erosion
• Prevent soil compaction
• Help neutralize acid rain
• Encourage beneficial earthworms

Used as a Soil Conditioner, SWEET PEET^® will...

• Add water retentive properties, helping plants through dry periods
• Improve soil tilth (texture)
• Loosen hardpan and clay soils
• Elevate pH and add trace minerals

Application: 3-6” of SWEET PEET^® should be applied directly on top of bare earth. For longer lasting weed suppression, lay down several sheets of newspaper or heavy mill plastic first. SWEET PEET^® may also be roto-tilled into topsoil to improve tilth and moisture retention. Re-apply annually.
