Worm castings are a rich, all-natural source of organic matter with lots of nutrients- and moisture-holding capabilities. Earthworm castings are known to have an extraordinary effect on plant life. Castings improve the soil structure and increase fertility, which make them one of the most enriched soil conditioners available.

Living Soil

Barefoot Soil has received the highest attainable rating “EXCELLENT” from an independent testing laboratory. Certified “Organic”, the soil contains 60% worm castings 40% worm compost that has been double sifted into a black nutrient-rich humus. The soil is odor free and will not burn. The high species diversity of micro – organisms serves as a protector against disease as well as helps to control disease. In addition, the micro-organisms break down soil nutrients making them readily to plant root hairs to utilize. Other benefits include stabilizing soil aggregates to enhance water-holding ability. Barefoot Soil is high in nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and trace minerals that are available immediately and time released for maximum results. There are special plant growth enhancers as well that are only apparent in worm-worked soil. Studies show plants or seeds demonstrate the following attributes when grown in worm castings: greater plant height, leaf area, root mass, better germination and faster growth. Long-term benefits include improvement of soil, and subsequent subsurface water quality. Can be used to make worm tea to spray on soil and plants, which multiplies the beneficial effects of the micro - organisms.
