who we are
Listen to a short 3 ½ minute audio recording made by some of our colleagues about who we are, why we make natural plant care products and what they think about those products.
Discovery of Liquid Mulch
It all began in 2007 with an idea about how to make a biodegradable plastic film that solves a number of issues & problems for growers. While working with farmers and the Fruit & Vegetable Growers Association, I found that traditional films, whether or not they are degradable, are a hassle to work with. Seven years later Liquid Mulch came to be and we have been improving it ever since.

passionate about plants
Made from plants for plants. Our main product, Liquid Mulch, was developed over a period of 10 years by our polysaccharide chemist in cooperation with the Ontario Fruit and Vegetable Growers Association, Ontario Agri-Food Technologies, Ontario Corn Growers association, University of Guelph, Vineland Research Institute, local tree nurseries and many others. It is the ideal, chemical-free way of keeping a weed-free garden. Discover the benefits of Liquid Mulch for yourself.
