Willamette Organics is a regional leader in the move to
sustainable farming and landscape practices. We seek to
bring about a deeper understanding of the relationship between
healthy soil, healthy plants, healthy people and a healthy
society. Through the provision of products, services and
expertise, we expedite the sustainability movement.
Healthy, biologically active soil is the foundation of
a healthy environment. Healthy soil not only promotes hardiness
in plants, it also purifies water, helps control water movement,
mitigates against pests and diseases, and is natures recycling
system for all organic matter. When soils are abused, either
through natural processes or as a result of man’s
cultural practices, the natural biological balance is upset
and soils loose these important capabilities. Recognizing
damaged soils and restoring them to health is fundamental
to our work at Willamette Organics. A primary tool in rebuilding
soil health is the concentrated liquid microbial extract
that has come to be known as compost tea. Through custom
compost tea brewing with the addition of specific beneficial
microbes and plant soluble nutrients, Willamette Organics
produces BioSolutions.
We use the term BioSolutions both to describe our liquid
product and, since we utilize primarily biological as
opposed to chemical solutions to pest, disease and fertility
problems, as a general description of our services. We
offer BioSolutions programs in both general land care,
including landscapes and
in agriculture with commercial
growers and horticulturists.
Making a commitment to the sustainable path can involve
extra expense, especially when transitioning to organic
land care or crop production. It is therefore important
to many of us to realize the natural good-will of the community
to help off-set any extra expense. Willamette Organics offers
our clients and associates recognition for their commitment
through our Partners in Sustainability program. We list
our Partners on our website as well as provide them with
yard and/or field signs identifying them as Partners
in Sustainability with Willamette Organics.
