Go Green With Our Worm Compost

Let your garden benefit from our super-hero worms!

Benefits

Our organic compost contains the perfect balance of NPK (Nitrogen – Phosphorus – Potassium) – providing your plants with the nutrients they need. Unlike some chemical fertilisers it does not burn your plants. It can even be turned into liquid fertiliser for faster absorption.

Worms

Our compost contains worm cocoons for long term improvement of your soil.  These little guys naturally enrich the soil and help plants ward off diseases.  If that’s not enough, they break down dead organic matter into nutrients for your plants.  Soon your soil will be self sustaining, without the need for chemical fertilisers!

Go Green

Our compost is 100% natural and organic. It is proudly made from Namibian food and garden waste reducing landfill. It contains trace-minerals and natural growth stimulating hormones typically not found in other fertilisers. Not only that but it also aids water soil water retention.

The Green Planet Gardening Story

The Challenge

The problem is that we use compost and think because it says “organic” on the packaging it is natural – but few people actually keep in mind how much carbon dioxide was produced with the production of the compost.

We keep our garden green, but few people think about the volume of water it actually consumes. We use manure to fertilize our ground, but few people actually know how poisonous this can be to our soil and our ground water.

My Vision

There are dozens of problems I saw and that’s why I wanted to build a company that both helps people to not just grow a blooming garden, but also a sustainable and natural one too. I wanted people to grow TRULY green gardens. Gardens that are eco-friendly and that actually help our environment, and on that day the idea of Green Planet Gardening was born.

When people use our products they should know that they don’t just do their garden a favour, but the environment and our planet too.

Tips For Going Green

Have you ever wondered what a “truly green” garden looks like? The eco-friendly, water saving environment protecting type of superhero garden? Well – you are about to find out!

  1. Recycle & reuse materials
  2. Save water
  3. No more chemicals
  4. Improve your soil

 

Helping Namibia Go Green

Our Events & Community  Work

As you know, the environment and its sustainability is the number one priority to us. This is exactly why we want to use a specific percentage of our income to make sure we help our environment out.

We plan on doing a variety of activities that serve the community at large. These include:

 

  • making our production of compost, vermicompost and all other products that might follow in the future carbon neutral
  • reducing our water usage to a minimum
  • the distribution of organic material should be Namibia wide
  • cleaning up local areas from all non-organic scraps
  • supporting community gardens
