The Premier Organic Fertilizer Suppliers in Colorado

When we tried to raise “horse hay” — alfalfa-grass hay — we were lucky to harvest .5 ton per acre per cut, now we harvest an average of 2-112 tons per acre each cutting. The soil samples we first took showed that our soils had nothing left for the next season’s growth cycle. Commercial fertilizer recommendations were for hundreds of pounds per acre of NPK, and 5-7-10 pounds per acre of trace elements, just to keep things growing.

  • All our products are certified or NOP listed. They can be used for organic, sustainable, or conventional crop production.

When we tried to raise “horse hay” — alfalfa-grass hay — we were lucky to harvest .5 ton per acre per cut, now we harvest 2.5 tons, three times as much per cut. The soil samples we first took showed that our soils had nothing left for the next season’s growth cycle. Commercial fertilizer recommendations were for hundreds of pounds per acre of NPK, and 5-7-10 pounds per acre of trace elements, just to keep things growing.

Our primary customer base is for horses and field is 70% grass, 30% alfalfa. We try to keep our crude protein below 18% with averages 14%-18%. Some of our hay has tested at 21%. These past few years our TDN (total digestible nutrients) has come up to 78.4% and 161-262 relative feed value. Trace elements are well above average.
