Consultancy
The clients that we take on for consultancy will get a 1:1 full service testing and consultations on how to remediate their property. This includes learning the following skills below so you can stay self sustaining. We never leave clients feeling like they are dependant on our skills. Through consultancy you will learn how to keep these holistic practices thriving! Clients will get lifetime support from us as well.
Biological Microscope Analysis
Microscopic biological soil analysis can indicate a lot about the dirt. Mind you, we do not call dirt soil until there is biological activity; and in most cases there is little to biology present in a big part of the earth's soils. Due to the use of toxic chemicals, overgrazing, pollution, erosion and climate change, the earth's dirt is mostly sterile. Biological soil analysis is the most important thing you can add to your tool box in order to ensure the 'underground workforce' is working for you and not against you. If we find that the biology is working against you or not present at all, we have options to remedy that.

Closed Loop Compost Making
As a consultancy client, we give you the tools and knowledge to make your own biologically complete compost. Whether that's in a worm bin or thermal compost/windrow. The goal is to help you create a self sustaining closed loop enterprise on your land. We will sample your compost under the microscope and ensure balanced organisms are present. We will help with temperature regulation/control through the use of compost thermometers and also teach you how to pick the correct starting materials in balanced ratio's from what is available on your land!
Mycoremediation of Pests
During you growing season, we will assess any potential threats of pests/disease. In order to resolve a pest issue, we will use fungi to remediate pests. These fungi invade the host pest and will devour the pest as food - without the use of pesticides! If you have chickens or ducks on your property we can use them as pest remediating tools as well.
Mycoremediation of Toxic Chemicals
Whether your land has had conventional agricultural chemicals or you're property has bioaccumulated toxic chemicals because of uncontrollable forces, we will work with you to the best of our ability to use biology to remediate your land. One proven way we do this is through introducing the proper balances of fungi and all the other beneficial microorganisms to lawns/gardens/crop land and waterways as remediation treatments.
Measuring Compaction
Compaction causes the roots of your plants to not reach their full potential. This translates to yield loss and money left in the field. Compaction occurs for a variety of different reasons (fallow fields, heavy machinery, lack of cover crop and heavy chemical use). As we introduce biology back into the soil, fungi can help penetrate compaction, etch away at parent material and bring water/nutrients to the roots of your plants. With the correct biology added soil structure will be built and your roots and water will be able to penetrate deep into the earth.
Increase water holding capacity of soil
In agricultural fields or your front lawn, we can introduce the proper balance of microorganisms to increase water holding capacity. This is an important issue as worldwide drought is occurring at an alarming rate.
Increase Yeilds
Increased yields is one of the positive outcomes of adding the appropriate biology back into your soil. A second positive benefit is how nutrient dense your yield will be because the crops are being nurtures by biology and not forced to perform for a chemical.
Increase the health of livestock
Your pastures will be able to recover from grazing faster and stronger when using our holistic grazing plans. When balanced biology is applied, the nutrient density in the pasture forage ensures that your livestock are getting adequate essential nutrients to keep them healthy. When balanced biology is added, livestock gain more weight, are healthier (less veterinarian visits) and you get bumper crops to store for winter feed.
