Dr. Earth Fertilizers

By: Jennifer LaMontagne – Horticulturist – Bloch’s Farm – Green Lake, WI

In addition to the usual tasks on your monthly gardening checklist, keep plants looking their best all summer by establishing a fertilizing regimen. Requiring more than a one-time dose of fertilizer, soil needs to be monitored and tended regularly for beautiful flowers and top performing vegetables. For your fertilizing needs, Bloch’s Farm carries an array of Dr. Earth Co. products.

Since 1991, Dr. Earth has formulated a variety of organic fertilizers, in both liquid and dry forms that are environmentally friendly; safe for the earth, humans, and pets. Milo Lou Shammas, the founder of Dr. Earth Co., takes great pride in making the world a better place. Dr. Earth placed the first probiotic fertilizers and soils on the market, and the company continues to set industry standards for products. 

Each type of organic fertilizer is specially formulated and contains high quality ingredients such as upcycled plant scraps from supermarkets and farms, ocean plants, fish, and minerals from the earth. Probiotics ensure the nutrients are broken down and released into the soil for easy plant absorption. Many of the Dr. Earth fertilizers can also be used in your compost pile to speed up the breakdown of organic matter.

Choose Dr. Earth Co. fertilizers to meet your gardening needs. Many can be used for initial planting or transplanting, regular fertilizing on top of the soil, or as compost teas. Bloch’s Farm carries:
