Proper soil health will lead to better quality plants, a reduction in water use and inputs. A sustainable landscape starts with a nutrient rich soil. As part of Ewing’s Sustainable Solutions product offering, we’ve partnered with [Holganix](https://www.holganix.com)—a 100% organic, plant probiotic, bio-nutritional soil amendment that builds strong roots and healthier plants. Recently I had the opportunity to participate on a webinar with Holganix where we discussed how sustainability and soil health go hand-in-hand. In my presentation, I provided an overview of my background and interest in sustainability, as well as Ewing’s focus on sustainability and where we see the industry going. Some of the key takeaways include: - Soil is crucial to sustainable turf/plant management. If you’re going to have healthy plants, you need to start with healthy soil. - Healthy soil leads to less input of water, fertilizers and pesticides. - Healthy soil texture allows roots to grow and get the nutrients the plants need.
