Definition of Integrated Pest Management (IPM)
Our organic products are designed to increase the nutrition and replace microorganisms in the soil, thus strengthening the plants' resistence to disease, which in turn deters pests. Our goal is to eventually reduce pesticides altogether and only use when necessary.
