THE CONSUMER IS NOW DEMANDING MORE ORGANIC PRODUCE.

Florida Soil Builders was established in late 1999. The founders each have a farming background and their focus is to produce high quality soil amendments by utilizing natural inputs, including horticultural debris from landscape and golf course maintenance operations.

Florida Soil Builders receives approximately 500,000 cubic yards of horticultural debris each year, which is sorted and ground to make a perfect ratio of carbon and nitrogen necessary to produce a premium soil amendment.

The material is then placed in long, narrow windrows. The windrows are turned with a mechanical turner to manage the decomposition process to maintain the correct moisture, oxygen and temperature levels in the row.

Completion of the composting process takes up to six months, during which time the rows will be turned up to 30 times to produce a humus-rich finished product.

Florida Soil Builders works diligently to fulfill the company’s mission of supplying reliable, environmentally friendly soil amendments to assist farmers in keeping Florida farming sustainable. FCM
