By using Fertile Fibre, there is no need to use peat ever again.

Peat is a finite resource, and the importance of conserving the world’s peat moors is widely recognized by conservationists.

In looking for a way to avoid using this precious resource—yet still obtain outstanding growing results—we developed Fertile Fibre. This is a real, truly organic, alternative to peat. Its basis is a high quality form of coir.

It is certified by the Soil Association, the UK's leading campaigning and certification organisation for organic food and farming.

Our products have been tried and tested on our nursery, The Cottage Herbery, The Herbery produces herbs, aromatic and scented foliage plants, always organically, and to medal winning standards, including RHS awards.

Fertile Fibre’s raw materials are first checked for quality, then processed, blended and packed by us on our farm in Herefordshire. This gives us complete control over the organic integrity of our products.

Our ongoing commitment is to produce environmentally friendly products with outstanding performance—delivering high quality, with good value.
