About Soil Remineralization
Introduction to Reminerializaton
Applications and Applying
You use the whole bag in your usual spring or fall digging. We give you just the amount you need to make a significant difference in your garden this year.
Conventional or pre-mixed fertilizers generally supply only the basic nutrition for basic plant growth; not the breadth of nutrients needed for a plant to produce fruit and vegetables with the full range of nutrients they are capable of producing and we humans need to consume for health.
We are concerned about growing nutrient-dense food because even “healthy” food like spinach or the good ole potato are not as nutritious as they used to be, and that is all because of the soil they are grown in. A single serving of spinach in the 1970’s held 150 mg of iron. Today that same single serving of spinach provides us with 5 mg of iron! In that same 40 years a potato has lost 100% of Vitamin A, 57% of Vit C & Iron, 28% calcium, 50% riboflavin, and 18% thiamin.
This is due to the serious depletion of minerals from agricultural soils. In the last 100 years soils have lost 85% of their mineral content.

So, is it true then that farmers on the large produce farms could rejuvenate their soils, bring back the flavors, nutrients and colors in the fruits and vegetables that we are getting in our grocery store just by remineralizing?
Yes, and it is inexpensive, easy and reduces waste and cost in comparison to conventional methods.
Most likely you will need to apply your remineralization mix in the spring and perhaps in the fall. You may need take soil tests and add remixes according to your results for a few years as your soil improves and changes. However, in just a short time; a few years, your soil will need very little input to keep it healthy and productive for many many years to come.
