There are several benefits including:
- It is adapted to the local climate and conditions: Local garden soil is already acclimated to the specific conditions and climate of the region, which makes it easier for plants to thrive.
- It contains local microorganisms: Local soil contains microorganisms that are specific to the region. These microorganisms help to break down organic matter and release nutrients that are essential for plant growth.
- It is less likely to introduce invasive species: When you use soil from another region, you risk introducing invasive species that can harm the local ecosystem. By using local soil, you reduce this risk.
- It supports the local economy: By purchasing local soil, you are supporting Payne’s Organic Soil Yard!
- It can be more affordable: Transporting soil from other regions can be expensive, so using local soil can be a more cost-effective option
