Good Earth owns over 5,000 acres of Canadian Sphagnum Peat Moss on the banks of the St. Lawrence Seaway in Point Escuminac, New Brunswick, Canada
GOOD EARTH’S peat moss is 100% pure, New Brunswick Quality Canadian Sphagnum Peat Moss. It retains moisture much longer than potting soils, holds up to 20 times its own weight, and is an excellent source of humus. Sphagnum stores organic plant foods to reduce cost and frequency for fertilizers. It also loosens and aerates heavy soils to stimulate roots and binds sandy soils to help prevent erosion. A peat bog consists of dead plants, leaves, and sticks in various stages of decomposition. Wood, tree branches, roots, and sometimes-whole trees are found in peat bogs. Water is usually at or near the surface making it feel like a sponge if you walked on it, which can be dangerous because sometimes the water lies in pools, some as large as a lake.
