  • HANDLING & APPLICATION

    When handling larger volumes of Organic Veggie Mix, ensure stockpiles are covered to give protection against weather conditions and wind-blown seeds. Do not drive over stockpiles - this will compact the mix. Do not mix with soil - this will destroy the weed-free properties. To know more about installation instructions, you can view and download the construction and operation maintenance guides from our website.

    • Apply 150mm to 300mm directly on top of existing soil or into raised vegetable beds.
    • Directly plant into Organic Veggie Mix. • Ideal planting mix for growing vegetables.

  • HEALTH WARNING

    Ordinary garden soil and products like compost and mixes may contain a variety of living micro-organisms, some of which, on rare occasion can cause illness in humans. Serious infection is rare. However, for older people or those with reduced immunity, infection can be life threatening. We recommend the following precautions: avoid opening bags in enclosed areas; avoid inhaling the mix; always wear gloves and wash hands after use. See your doctor if you develop high fever, chill, breathlessness or cough.

  • RECYCLED PRODUCT DECLARATION

    Living Earth products are made with a compost base produced from Auckland’s greenwaste. This is great for the planet but the reality of greenwaste recycling means that small inorganic items can sometimes remain after the composting and screening process. You can be confident Living Earth meets the NZS 4454 (and BioGro) standards and all products go through a pasteurisation process which mean they’re safe with lots of long-term benefits for your soil. Your plants will thrive and your veggies will taste delicious. Please just be mindful of what goes in with your greenwaste when it is time for harvesting and pruning all that growth.
