Quality Compost Products by A1 Organics
SERVING THE COMMERCE CITY, EATON & KEENESBURG, CO AND ENGLEWOOD, CO AREAS!
Why purchase A1’s certified products? Simple. There are products on the market today that are labeled “compost.” In reality, they are nothing more than “well-rotted manure” or aged wood. With either of these products or anything else that is not compost, your landscaping projects are likely to perform very poorly, or maybe not at all. At A1 Organics, we feel that it is important to give the consumer an easy way to identify quality compost.
Compost should smell like “fresh earth.” After all, compost is organic material that has been naturally decomposed. It should smell similar to the soil in your flowerbed or garden after it has been freshly turned. An analysis by an independent laboratory is the best way of verifying that what you are buying is compost. A1’s “Certified Quality” program is our way of assuring that what you are buying is compost and that an independent laboratory has tested our compost.
