Are you still using PEAT MOSS based potting soil? During our recent chat with Chad from Rosy Soil, we learned that peat moss mining emits 2x as much CEO as the global airline industry 😲 There are some companies making potting mix from cardboard, but Rosy takes that a step further by using biochar which, as we learned, has a ton of additional plant and environmental benefits! #gardening #gardeninglife #startups

"80% of plant species wouldn't be able to get the moisture and nutrients they need without the help of mycorrhizae fungi" - Chad, Rosy Soil. So next time you see a baby shroom popping up from your soil, be grateful that it's so healthy!
