Soil Improvement In The Peat-Free Era with Daniel Suggitt from PlantGrow
Send us a text
I had the pleasure of a tour around Bardney Manor in Lincolnshire recently courtesy of owner Samantha Wright and discovered a pile of lovely rich soil which she'd had delivered ready to start a very ambitious project - more of which later. Anyway, after further investigation, it transpired that the soil was in fact PlantGrow, a soil improver made up entirely of plant matter from a process of bio-digestion.
A quick phone call to General Manager Daniel Suggitt and we had ourselves a podcast guest. Given how peat-free is becoming quite the topic as the deadline for the shift away from peat looms over the horizon, it seems timely to start looking at the alternatives. John and I will be taking a closer look at the PlantGrow operation soon but Daniel gives us a good feel for the product and the story behind it.
