About Us / Horticratic Oath

First, improve the soil. We, at Earthcare, do everything we can to feed your soil, so your plants can grow strong and beautiful, purifying our air and maintaining the balance of life on earth.

Second, work with nature. Plants are miraculous. Rooted in the soil, they take water and sunlight and literally turn air (mostly carbon dioxide) into cell structures that become food, fuel, habitat, shelter and medicine. We can utilize this energy sustainably if we work with nature, not against it.

Third, feed biology. Plants need minerals and one vital nutrient- nitrogen- that they are unable to access alone. They need billions of hidden players- microscopic organisms- that unlock nutrients stored in our soil and fix nitrogen from the atmosphere. These organisms release nutrients to the plants in just the form that the plants need.

Fourth, sustain life. We, as landscapers and gardeners, can nurture plants best by nurturing these hidden partners. In all we do, we seek to improve the quality of our living soil. With this foundation, we grow plants that will nourish body and soul for years to come.
