Give your seeds the perfect start with this peat-free, self-feeding wool compost mix from Dalefoot Composts in a generous 20l bag. They use organic sheep’s wool to nurture plants over long periods of time with a steady, slow release of nutrients as the wool gradually breaks down. The sheep’s wool also has great water retention which means less back and forth with the watering can and a more consistent hydration for your plants. The mix of Cumbrian bracken makes for a rich blend of potash, iron and magnesium that boosts the organic growth with all-natural nutrients. A perfect partner to bulbs and seedlings working hard beneath the surface through the colder months.

Producer

Dalefoot composts represent a combination of traditional farming techniques and new environmental sciences. As a fifth-generation farmer, Simon welcomed Jane’s expertise in helping combat a problem facing much of the Lake District’s fells. The aggressively growing bracken that dominates the Lake District’s hills can be harvested to allow for greater ecological diversity and for a nutrient-rich compost. When mixed in with sheep’s wool, Simon and Jane found they’d created a fantastic compost that gave plants a real growth boost with excellent water retention. An excellent way to turn a problem into a woolly, mulchy solution.
