Living biology in a bag. No bulk, no filler, no mess.
Earth Medicine wakes up the moment you water it, feeding your soil the way nature intended. Safe around kids, pets, and wildlife.
One man, a mountain of dairy manure, and a better way to feed the soil
Dan Prefontaine spent over ten years making high quality compost for farmers in Idaho's Magic Valley, a region packed with dairy farms. He saw those farms producing huge amounts of manure every year and asked a simple question: how do we turn this into something that helps people grow better crops?
His wife, a soil food web technician, checked sample after sample under a microscope to confirm the microbes were alive, with no filler. Their compost was excellent. But large amounts of compost become too expensive to ship by the tonne outside a 60-mile radius.
So Dan built a gentle process inside his patented EM Chamber. With careful heat, moisture, and turning, the biology wakes up, multiplies by the millions, and naturally forms small granules. Those granules are Earth Medicine: living biology you can keep on a shelf, ship anywhere in the country, and spread by hand.
Not compost. Not chemicals. Something better.
Living microbes
It's alive. The microbes wake up when you water and start feeding your soil and roots right away.
Shelf-stable and easy
Dormant in the bag until you need it. Just broadcast it by hand or use a tablespoon, no special equipment required.
Safe for everyone
No odor, no dust, no mess. Non-toxic to kids, pets, and wildlife. Let the dog back on the lawn.
Recycled by nature
Made from composted dairy manure, processed in Dan's patented EM Chamber. Good for soil and planet.

Three steps to living biology
Broadcast
Spread a generous handful over the area. You really cannot overapply it.
Water it in
Give the soil a good watering to wake up the microbes.
Let it work
Keep watering lightly for a few days while the granules break down into the soil.

Kaia AllineThe questions we hear most
Is it safe around my dog and kids?
Yes. Earth Medicine is non-toxic to pets, kids, and wildlife. There is no odor, dust, or mess, and you can let everyone back on the lawn.
Is this just compost?
No. Compost mainly adds organic matter. Earth Medicine is a concentrated microbial fertilizer that activates the living biology in your soil. It starts as composted dairy manure, then goes through our patented EM Chamber, which multiplies the microbes and forms them into shelf-stable granules.
What about herbicides like glyphosate?
Independent testing showed only trace levels, and our biological process reduces them further: 0.11 ppm in the raw compost down to 0.03 ppm in the finished product.
How do I use it on houseplants?
Apply about a half to one teaspoon into the soil, then water it in to activate the microbes.
Can I use too much?
No, you really cannot realistically overapply Earth Medicine. Spread a generous amount, water it in, and the microbes do the rest.
Do you ship to Canada?
Not yet. Earth Medicine currently ships within the United States only, due to import and regulatory restrictions in other countries.
